Summary - THE CHESTNUTS, WOODBRIDGE, MONEWDEN IP13 7BY
5 bed 2 bath Detached
- Grade II listed 17th‑century timber framed farmhouse (historic protections)
A classic Grade II listed 17th‑century timber‑framed farmhouse set in about 6.7 acres, The Chestnuts combines authentic period character with extensive outbuildings and productive grounds. The main house offers generous reception rooms, a traditional AGA kitchen with service rooms, five principal bedrooms plus a large attic room, and fine exposed timbers throughout. Its elevated edge‑of‑village position gives fine country views and strong privacy while remaining accessible to Framlingham, Woodbridge and Ipswich.
The property’s range of timber barns, stores and workshops has been adapted for flexible uses including an office/games room, garaging, stables and a modern insulated workshop. Grounds include formal gardens, orchard, wildflower meadows, a parkland paddock, heated swimming pool and a hard tennis court — a very complete rural package suited to equestrian, smallholding or family country living.
Buyers should note material constraints: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or conversion of historic fabric. The house uses oil heating and has a modern private drainage system; broadband is reported as very slow. Council Tax is Band G, reflecting running costs for a property of this size.
This is a property for purchasers seeking substantial, characterful rural accommodation with useful ancillary buildings and land, who are comfortable with listed‑building responsibilities and the practicalities of a large country estate.
