This historic property, originating from the 16th century, boasts a traditional timber frame constructed from durable oak or elm, complemented by rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof. With various later extensions, this residence offers substantial character and potential for enhancement. The expansive layout spans three floors and incorporates an entrance hall, porch, cloakroom, three reception rooms, a conservatory, and a spacious office area. An additional office is conveniently located above the family room.
The kitchen/breakfast room features ample storage and an oil-fired Aga, leading to the terrace and heated swimming pool. Further accommodations on the ground floor include a family room, walk-in pantry, utility room, and useful cellar.
The first and second floors comprise six bedrooms served by three bath/shower rooms and two en-suites. The property's outdoor space is equally impressive, featuring well-established gardens with mature trees and ponds, alongside various outbuildings. A notable highlight is the large timber-framed barn adjacent to a renovated three-bedroom single-storey cottage that presents excellent rental or guest accommodation options.
Possibility for future investment exists with planning consents already in place for converting parts of the barn into residential space—creating an exceptional six-bedroom dwelling when combined with the cottage.
Additionally, there's recreational potential throughout the grounds with a tennis court needing some restoration work, as well as stables and agricultural buildings suitable for equestrian use or alternative activities. This property represents not just a home but also an opportunity for significant development in a picturesque setting within East of England's countryside while remaining accessible to local amenities and transport links.
