Enchanting 17th century village house with beautiful gardens.
Perfectly situated in the picturesque and popular village of Brandeston, Harvest House is an attractive and wonderfully charming period house with delightful gardens, a cart lodge, and a workshop.
Believed to date from the 17th century, Harvest House is Grade II listed for its historical and architectural interest and retains a wealth of period features, including exposed timbers, studwork, and original chimneypieces.
The house has been maintained by our clients to an exceptional standard, and the accommodation comprises wonderfully proportioned, light-filled rooms that perfectly balance historic charm with modern practicality to create a superb family home.
The front door opens into the entrance hall, where stairs lead to the bedroom accommodation on the first and second floors, with doors opening to the sitting room and dining room.
The elegantly proportioned sitting room features a handsome redbrick inglenook fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove, timber-framed windows, and exposed studwork. The room flows through to a delightful study, ideal for homeworking.
The double-aspect dining room looks out over the gardens and features wide oak floorboards and a wood-burning stove. It leads through to the kitchen and breakfast room.
The bespoke kitchen is fitted with an AGA, hand-built cabinetry and island, with granite work surfaces and integrated appliances. A glazed door leads out to the garden. To the side of the kitchen is a useful utility room, which leads through to a cloakroom.
The kitchen flows through to a breakfast room, ideal for casual dining, and continues into a fabulous and spacious family room - a sympathetic extension flooded with natural light, with French windows opening to a courtyard.
There are five bedrooms arranged over the first and second floors. The principal bedroom is an especially delightful room with an en suite bathroom.
Gardens
Harvest House occupies superb grounds of about a quarter of an acre. Set back from the road behind a redbrick wall and a pretty front garden, the house enjoys a peaceful position. To the side is a lawn with shrub and herbaceous borders.
The private, secluded gardens, designed by Roger Gladwell and Paul Baines, feature terraces ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, along with climbing wisteria, clematis, roses, and a beautiful jasmine archway.
Harvest House has extensive parking for multiple cars and a double garage with an EV charging point. To the rear of the garage is a workshop with power and lighting.

Harvest House is a beautifully preserved Grade II listed family home that perfectly blends 17th-century charm with elegant, light-filled interiors and superb living spaces. I especially love the impressive inglenook fireplace, the bespoke AGA kitchen, and the beautifully designed gardens, which offer a tranquil setting with wisteria-draped terraces perfect for outdoor entertaining.
