A substantial and generously proportioned 5 bedroom family home set in grounds of approx 4.5 acres in a delightfully private location on the outskirts of a busy Suffolk village. The property comes with a number of useful outbuildings, including a large two storey double garage with an office to the rear and further undeveloped space on the second floor, a small barn standing alone in the middle of the approx 3 acre paddock to the rear of the property, a timber-built garage formerly used as a workshop, and a three room brick building currently serving as a toilet/shower block (great if you want to have 300 friends over to stay!).
The house is approached up a 60m tree-lined drive, passing the “front field” on the right, before curving to a gravelled area in the front of the house and double garage.

GROUNDS
Formal lawn to front of house leads down to a row of mature apple trees beyond which lies the front field, which also extends up the right hand side of the house.
Immediately behind the house is a secure rear garden with footings for greenhouse, patio area and good sized lawn. This area is totally enclosed by a mature privet hedge and fencing. To the right of the rear garden is a further lawned area planted with flowering shrubs and providing views over the fields – an ideal spot to watch the sun set. Behind this, and stretching all the way to the left hand side of the garage is the plum orchard which, although the trees are past their best, still produces some delicious plums of two different varieties.
Behind this lies the main field (approx 3 acres), which has been fenced with good quality post and rail fencing to be suitable for equestrian use. Inside this field stands the two storey barn (7.3m x 4.7m) of traditional timber construction with a tiled roof.
Vehicle access to the field is provided by the driveway which continues past the left hand side of the house up past the wooden garage/workshop (3.5m x 7.3m) and the three room single storey brick out-house (3m x 3m, 3m x 2.5m, 3m x 3m) which is fully supplied with mains water, foul drains (connecting to septic tank) and mains electricity. This has most recently been used as a toilet/shower block for visiting campers and contains two WCs and an electric shower.
Services: mains electricity; telephone and water are connected. Water meter fitted.
