An immaculately presented and newly refurbished converted barn in a popular village.
Newly refurbished by the present vendors, Barn House is a classic timber framed Suffolk barn conversion, now offering immaculately presented and well laid out accommodation, with generously proportioned rooms.
Extending to some 3,447 sq ft, the accommodation features a recessed front door opening into a vaulted central reception hall, with limestone tiled floor, set off which is a 23 ft x 19 ft triple aspect drawing room with French doors to the garden terrace and a wood burning stove set in a brick fireplace. Adjacent is a large study with bi-fold doors to the aforementioned terrace and opposite is the impressive kitchen/breakfast room, with its tiled flooring and fully fitted units by Orwells of Ipswich, integrated Fisher and Paykel appliances, granite work surfaces and a three oven AGA with an electric hob. This is open plan to a utility area with a stable door to the terrace. Beyond is a flexible use dining room/family room with wooden flooring, wood burning stove and further French doors to the aforementioned terrace.
An oak staircase rises to a first-floor landing, set off which are four bedrooms, together with the luxury newly installed and unused bath/shower room, plus the master bedroom’s newly installed en suite shower room.
Situated on the ground floor beyond the dining room hall, with a cloak-shower room and its own stairs is an impressive, super smart first-floor soundproofed cinema room with professional level surround system.
The Barn benefits from an oil-fired central heating system and has a modern security system.
OUTSIDE - GARAGING
A pair of five bar gates provide access to a wide shingled parking and turning sweep, fronting onto which is a substantial double garage/workshop with an internal staircase to a loft room, which offers the potential for formalisation to an at-home office/studio/games room.
GARDENS
The gardens lie mainly to the rear of the barn and abut meadowland and farmland on two sides. They have dog proof fencing and are enclosed by osier weave fencing and natural hedgerow. Laid mainly to lawn there are a number of mature Ashe trees, two timber garden stores and a wide terrace ideal for alfresco dining running the length of the barn. In all the plot extends to about 1 acre.
