Set in a serene rural environment, this historic Grade II listed property offers a unique investment opportunity. Originally built in the mid-16th century and expanded with a 17th-century wing, the residence is a part of the Brandeston Hall Estate, positioned above the scenic River Deben. With its rich history and character features such as exposed timber beams and large open fireplaces, The Potash stands out for its aesthetic allure and potential for further enhancements.
The interiors include a spacious triple-aspect sitting room and principal bedroom boasting breathtaking views of the river and surrounding meadows. The current owners have made significant improvements including repairs to structural elements, updates to wiring, heating systems, and bathroom facilities. However, prospective buyers should note that additional refurbishment may be necessary; particularly regarding the thatched roof which is due for maintenance as advised by local experts.
Externally, the property features sprawling gardens adorned with various fruit trees, complemented by ample parking space and an outbuilding that could serve as a workshop or converted into living space (subject to planning permissions). The exterior spaces are perfect for creating inviting outdoor areas ideal for entertaining.
The Potash is nestled between two vibrant villages—Cretingham and Brandeston—each contributing to an active community atmosphere. Nearby towns like Framlingham and Woodbridge offer diverse amenities while maintaining easy connectivity to Ipswich for those needing access to city services.
With approximately 0.85 acres of land, this property not only presents a home but also an enticing canvas for further development and personalization according to your vision.
