Wonderfully positioned farmhouse with adjoining self-contained annexe in a secluded private setting. About 4 acres.
Fishponds Farm is set well back from the road on the edge of the village in a stunning setting surrounded by farmland. The attractive Grade II Listed house dates back to the 16th century and sits well within its established gardens with a traditional range of outbuildings. The addition of an annexe makes it perfectly suited for multi-generational living, working from home, or rental income potential.
The accommodation briefly comprises an open entrance porch which leads through to the partly vaulted reception hall with principal staircase, cloakroom and study. A side passageway leads to the utility room with shower room to one side. The kitchen opens into a dining room with open fireplace (stove not included). The kitchen has an Aga and numerous base units. Beyond the dining area is a front hall with the original newel stair and through to the sitting room with numerous exposed beams, Inglenook fireplace with wood burner and mullion window.
The staircase leads to a side half bedroom/washroom and on to the main landing with three further bedrooms within an ensuite shower room and family bathroom. Positioned to one side of the main house and with an interconnecting door from the utility room is the annex which comprises a kitchen with fireplace and wood burner, sitting room, bedroom (4) and bathroom (3).
The house is set back at the end of a long private track which passes an orchard, meadow and then culminates in a parking sweep to the side of the house. A further outbuilding used for general storage sits just before a productive vegetable garden with green house. There are established gardens around the property along with a pond which you can swim in. There is also a sheltered, south facing courtyard which fronts the long low barn and beyond is the more traditional Suffolk barn with a garage to one side, workshop area and a first floor studio room.
