Location
Elm Farm Barn is set within the beautiful Suffolk countryside with magnificent views across open pastureland. This newly developed, high-specification home is located on the edge of the village of Little Blakenham, close to the villages of Somersham and Bramford. It is just five miles to the county town of Ipswich which offers a range of local shopping, entertainment and leisure facilities and has a thriving waterfront with various restaurants, hotels and cafés. There are good rail links to London, Norwich and Cambridge and the village is close to road links for the A14 and A12.
With glorious Suffolk countryside right on your doorstep, Elm Farm Barn benefits from a number of fabulous walks, with footpaths taking you through the Gipping Valley and beyond. The nearby villages of Somersham and Bramford provide friendly, vibrant communities with a rural charm. The well-stocked community-run shop in Somersham is very popular, with the larger Co-op in Bramford and the nearby Ipswich supermarkets offering further choice. The local village pubs provide a warm welcome and there is also a village fish and chip shop and Chinese takeaway in Bramford Village.
Descripton
This individual, architect-designed old barn has been sympathetically restored, renovated and extended to the highest level of specification by Beechlake Developments, resulting in a truly unique and beautiful home. The original barn is constructed of solid brick under a new slate roof with the extended areas constructed with block walls and oak cladding.
The home extends to around 2252sqft (209 sqm) of living accommodation, including the first floor of the cart lodge which has a bedroom/home office with en-suite wc, plus a shower room and utility below.
A stunning, large, light and airy hallway greets you through the front door with an impressive, vaulted ceiling and a beautifully crafted bespoke solid oak staircase to the first floor.
The stunning, high-specification kitchen provides a large space which benefits from a great deal of natural light including bi-fold doors which lead out to the south-facing garden. The kitchen has been sympathetically designed to incorporate all modern NEFF appliances, including a double oven, fitted fridge/freezer and wine fridge. A detailed specification sheet provides further information.
The living room looks south out over a large patio area to a mainly lawned garden with plenty of scope to develop into a lovely, landscaped space.
All bedrooms are en-suite, with beautiful, fitted bathrooms. The master bedroom suite is on the ground floor and comprises a bedroom, dressing room and a large en-suite bathroom. Two generously sized en-suite bedrooms are on the first floor.
A fourth bedroom with en-suite wc and shower room is found in the cart lodge.
Outside the main driveway is block paved and provides parking for several cars and the house sits on a very good-sized plot (0.34 acres.) The south-facing plot has a large patio and lawned gardens.
