Wiggs Acre

Set within the quaint Suffolk village of Barnby, this impressive detached residence is proudly positioned on a lovely-sized plot and immediately conveys a sense of space, quality and quiet confidence. A Sabberton-built home, it carries all the hallmarks of thoughtful design and solid craftsmanship, paired with spacious, open-plan accommodation that has been carefully arranged to support modern family life.

The approach is smart yet understated, with a brick-weave driveway providing generous off-road parking, gated access to further parking and a double garage offering excellent storage options. A pitched porch entrance leads into a welcoming and light-filled hallway, where the proportions feel comfortable and considered. A ground-floor WC is neatly positioned for everyday convenience, while underfloor heating flows seamlessly throughout the entire ground floor, adding a gentle layer of warmth and comfort.

The sitting room sits to the front of the house and is a room designed for ease and relaxation. A brick-built fireplace with an inset wood burner creates a natural focal point, complemented by a large front-facing window that draws in plenty of natural light. It is a space that feels equally suited to quiet evenings as it does to hosting friends.

To the rear, the home opens out into a family room, a generous and versatile space that connects beautifully with the garden. Large sliding patio doors span the back of the room, opening directly onto the patio and creating an effortless indoor–outdoor flow during the warmer months, ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying the outlook.

At the centre of the house lies the open-plan kitchen and dining room, forming the true heart of the home. Designed for both everyday living and sociable occasions, the layout allows the spaces to work together naturally. The kitchen is fitted with quality cabinetry and a full range of Neff integrated appliances, including two single ovens, a induction hob and a microwave, along with a wine cooler and Bosch dishwasher, while an adjoining utility room keeps laundry appliances and household tasks discreetly tucked away.

A flexible ground-floor room offers excellent adaptability, working just as well as a home office or bedroom as it would a playroom, cosy snug or guest space, making it ideal for changing family needs.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable and private accommodation. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, while a well-appointed four-piece family bathroom serves the remaining rooms, offering both style and practicality.

The garden has been carefully maintained to create a private and enjoyable outdoor space. A patio provides room for seating and dining, leading onto a laid-to-lawn garden bordered by established beds that add colour and structure throughout the seasons. A sun room sits quietly to one side, offering the potential for a studio or work-from-home space, adding yet another layer of flexibility.

Overall, this is a turn-key family home that balances space, quality and lifestyle in equal measure. With its generous plot, flowing layout and village setting, it offers a calm and considered way of living, ready to be enjoyed from the moment you move in.
