Large barn-style outbuilding plus separate workshop on site

Ample off-road parking for several vehicles
Oil-fired boiler and external oil tank; EPC rating E
Solid brick walls likely without insulation; energy upgrades needed

Set in a peaceful hamlet just a few miles from Snape, Woodbridge, Aldeburgh and Orford Beach, this detached period house offers generous living space on just under half an acre. The property combines original character — sash windows, real wood floors and an open fireplace — with practical outbuildings and ample off-road parking, ideal for family life and countryside pursuits.
There is good potential for improvement and value uplift: a large barn-style outbuilding and separate workshop could be converted subject to planning approval, offering opportunities for an annex, home office or additional accommodation. The plot and setting make the house particularly appealing to buyers looking for space, privacy and easy access to coastal towns.
Buyers should note the property’s traditional construction and services. The home has solid brick walls (likely without insulation), secondary glazing, and an oil-fired boiler with external tank; the EPC is band E. There is one main bathroom and a cloakroom, so modernisation and energy-efficiency work may be required to meet contemporary expectations.
Chain-free and priced competitively for the area, this freehold home suits families or buyers seeking renovation potential in a quiet rural location. Planning is required for any outbuilding conversion and buyers should factor in potential upgrade costs for heating, insulation and general updating.
