Grade II-Listed timber-framed moated Suffolk farmhouse with rare redevelopment opportunity

8 Acres – A smallholding with equestrian and/or income (cabins, caravans, B&B) potential, subject to permission. Front orchard and back meadow, mature gardens, plentiful trees and greenery, and several moats. Once part of Lord Henniker’s magnificent Suffolk Estates.

A rare redevelopment opportunity – A much-loved family home, last sold nearly 55 years ago! Comes with full planning approval for a spectacular barn conversion.

A charming 16th Century Grade II-listed timber-framed moated farmhouse, displaying many original features and set in 8 acres of tranquil greenery.

Ground Floor: Sitting Room  • Reception/Drawing/Dining Room  • Kitchen/Breakfast Room • Utility Room • WC

First Floor: Principal Bedroom with Ensuite Bathroom • Three Further Bedrooms • Family Bathroom

Attic: Full length, potential for development/further living space, subject to permission.

The house has a small rear porch/boot room and an attached boiler house. There is oil-fired central heating and two wood-burning stoves set in large inglenook fireplaces.

Detached Double Garage and workshop.

Large Traditional Barn: with FULL PLANNING PERMISSION for conversion (and extension) to a contemporary 4/5 bed luxury residence. The plans were drawn up by a leading heritage architect specializing in listed properties and spectacular barn conversions.

Set just outside the village of Stradbroke, surrounded by lush countryside. Nearby market towns of Eye (8 miles), Framlingham (9 miles), Diss (10 miles, mainline train station with journeys to London Liverpool Street in 95 minutes). City services available in Ipswich (25 miles) and Norwich (30 miles). Easy access to  the stunning Suffolk Heritage coastline, with charming, traditional seaside resorts such as Aldeburgh and Southwold. Dunwich Heath and RSPB Minsmere/Dingle Marshes just 17 miles.

Condition: The main house is totally livable, but most buyers would now undertake extensive updating. Similarly, the barn has lots of potential/uplift, but a high-class barn conversion (per the approved plans) is a substantial project. Recent RICS Level 3 Building Survey can be shared with potential buyers. All (reasonable) offers considered.
