Summary - 11 SWANFIELD LAWSHALL BURY ST EDMUNDS IP29 4QB
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Charming extended home with large garden and unique meditation room.
Three bedrooms with principal bedroom built-in wardrobes
Set in the prosperous, close-knit village of Lawshall, this extended three-bedroom semi offers classic country living with practical, family-friendly spaces. The ground floor flows from a sitting room with a wood-burner through double doors into a dining room, with a kitchen/breakfast room and separate WC and bathroom to the rear. Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms, the principal with built-in wardrobes. The house is an average-sized home (951 sqft) suited to those seeking comfortable, traditional accommodation rather than a large modern footprint.
The garden is a standout asset — generously proportioned, largely lawned and planted with mature shrubs, trees and flower beds. A paved patio provides entertaining space and a number of outbuildings, greenhouse and log store add useful storage and productive space. Off-street parking lies to the front and the property is offered freehold and chain free, enabling a swift move for a buyer from the local farming community or someone relocating to the countryside.
A highly unusual and carefully handmade round garden building (the Ashram) sits near the bottom of the plot overlooking a pond and fields beyond. Built with natural materials — cob, flint facing, oak roof and an insulated sedum green roof — it has mains electricity and underfloor heating and will appeal to buyers who value a tranquil creative or meditation space. The vendor-designed structure is distinctive but will need an owner who appreciates traditional materials and ongoing maintenance.
Practical notes: heating in the main house is electric heaters and the sitting room has a wood-burner; services have not been independently tested. Broadband in the area is reported as standard and superfast availability, but actual speeds are slow locally. The property sits in a low-crime, low-flood-risk hamlet close to an outstanding village primary school and local amenities.
