Key information
Features and description
A substantial 19th-century barn conversion set within approximately 3.9 acres of mature gardens and paddock. The property includes a separate home office and enjoys an enviable position on the edge of a well-served village, offering good commuting links and easy access to Bury St Edmunds.
Situated in a wonderful semi-rural setting on the fringes of highly-regarded and well-served village, Hill Farm Barn is a substantial 19th-century barn conversion, built of traditional timber-frame construction with painted weatherboard elevations beneath a clay pan-tiled roof.
The property provides versatile and beautifully presented accommodation extending to around 3,240sq-ft, with the living space arranged over two floors and displaying period features. Notable features include the impressive, exposed timber frame and vaulted ceilings, a galleried mezzanine overlooking the dining hall below and traditional brick flooring, whilst benefitting from a large level of natural light throughout.
From the entrance porch, there is a well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with an extensive range of shaker-style base and wall units with solid wood worktop, stainless-steel sink unit with drainer and integrated appliances to include NEFF double oven, 4-ring hob with extractor and dishwasher.
Additional storage and utility space are provided by a well-appointed utility room, with access to a shower room with built-in shower cubicle, WC and wash-hand basin.
The impressive dining hall features traditional brick flooring and exposed timbers, vaulted roof height and a galleried mezzanine, and access to two receptions rooms; the drawing room, has a striking full-height vaulted ceiling, double aspect, and wood-burning stove set on a stone hearth, while the versatile family room/study enjoys views across the courtyard and front garden to the south and east.
There is a good-sized rear hall with cloakroom and French doors to the back garden, whilst also leading down to a ‘bedroom wing’, comprising of three double bedrooms with views over the gardens, and two en suite bathrooms.
From the first-floor galleried mezzanine is access to the principal bedroom featuring a vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers, a double aspect with far reaching views over the grounds and fields beyond, and its own en suite shower room.
Outside
Hill Farm Barn enjoys a wonderful setting, approached from the road via 5-bar gates to an extensive gravelled carriage driveway providing parking for several cars, leading to a detached double garage and adjoining studio/office, which provides excellent space for those looking to work from home or for creative pursuits. The grounds have a number of notable areas, all with their own interest and are home to an abundance of wildlife.
There is a delightful partially walled courtyard to the south, leading to a large expanse of lawned garden to the front, with a pond and well-stocked flowering beds and mature and younger trees. To the rear, the property enjoys a large garden just under one acre, providing ample space for outdoor entertaining. To the side lies a generous paddock, currently laid to a wildflower meadow, but offering potential for equestrian use. There is a further enclosed garden behind the double garage with a greenhouse, raised vegetable beds and young orchard, offering an ideal setting for those with a passion for growing vegetables and fruit.
Huge Suffolk skies and sunsets grace the landscape surrounding this wonderful setting.
