Description

This detached period farmhouse is set in an elevated position, encompassing approximately 6.69 acres of rural land that includes stabling, paddocks, and various outbuildings. With about 2,300 sq ft of living space, the property presents considerable opportunities for refurbishment and modernization to unlock its full potential. Accessed via a private driveway stretching roughly a quarter of a mile, the home boasts picturesque views of the surrounding Suffolk countryside. The accommodation spans two floors, showcasing several charming period features such as exposed timber beams, traditional fireplaces, and original joinery. The current layout encompasses multiple reception areas alongside four bedrooms, offering flexibility for reconfiguration based on your vision and any required consents. The centrally located kitchen overlooks the expansive grounds and while it needs updating, it serves as a blank canvas for creating a tailored family home. Externally, the property benefits from vast gardens alongside paddocks suitable for grazing or equestrian purposes. The equestrian facilities include a stable block with three stalls and a tack room, complemented by additional agricultural storage buildings. Given its previous use for horses, this extensive land area is ideal for various smallholding ventures.
