Set in a tranquil Suffolk hamlet, The Old Oaks is a spacious five‑bedroom barn conversion arranged over two floors and set within roughly 0.52 acres of lawn, mature trees and terraces. The heart of the house is a large vaulted living room with exposed beams and abundant natural light, complemented by two further reception rooms and a well‑proportioned kitchen/breakfast room that opens to a paved terrace. Principal bedroom with en suite and two first‑floor aspects makes a peaceful retreat overlooking open countryside.
This property will suit families or buyers seeking a rural lifestyle: generous reception space, flexible ground‑floor bedroom/study options, a workshop/store and off‑street parking with a cartlodge provide useful practical benefits. The plot offers seclusion and excellent views across neighbouring fields, with local villages and larger towns within easy driving distance and road links to the A14.
Buyers should note a number of practical considerations. Heating is oil‑fired with a boiler and radiators, and the building has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, so running and upgrade costs and insulation work should be factored in. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average, which may affect home working. Council Tax is in the higher band F. Drainage is private but reported to comply with current regulations.
Offered with no onward chain, the property presents immediate occupation potential while also offering scope for targeted upgrading and energy improvements to enhance comfort and reduce running costs. Overall, The Old Oaks combines character features and generous rural grounds with clear practical items to consider for long‑term enjoyment.
