An elegant period house, situated in the heart of this well-regarded village, convenient for Bury St Edmunds

Situated within this well-served and regarded village, Suffolk House is an elegant period house with origins dating back to the 15th-century, with an elegant façade built in 1840, with its white-brick elevations under a slate roofline.

The property is graced with many notable original features, with contrasting personalities of the earlier timber-frame charm against the high ceilings and large sash windows of its later counterpart – as a whole, the property becomes a welcoming and graceful home enjoying a high degree of natural light.

Extending to around 2,800ft2 arranged over two floors, the property comprises a large reception hall, a drawing room with attractive fireplace, a double aspect dining room with cast iron fireplace and original serving hatch.

There is a heavily timbered study with inglenook fireplace, cloakroom, and a large sitting room, with exposed timbers and inglenook fireplace housing a wood-burning stove.

The Aga kitchen has been fitted with a 4-oven oil-fired Aga bespoke shaker-style base and eye level units with matching dresser, solid wood worktops and tiled flooring, leading out to a boot room and utility room.

The beautifully carved staircase leads to a spacious large landing, with the two front bedrooms forming part of the Victorian wing, one with a large en suite bathroom, whilst to the back of the property are three further bedrooms, family bathroom and shower room.
