Summary - THE LAVENHAMS BRIDGE STREET ROAD LAVENHAM SUDBURY CO10 9SJ
6 bed 4 bath Country House
Extensive grounds, pool and versatile outbuildings close to village amenities.
Grade II listed country house dating from 1475
The Lavenhams is a beautifully refurbished Grade II listed country house combining historic character with contemporary finishes across 6,608 sq ft. Set within about 5.4 acres, the property offers extensive private grounds, manicured terraces and a heated outdoor pool — a rare, ready-to-enjoy family estate in a highly regarded medieval village.
Interior spaces are generous and versatile: four reception rooms, a large open-plan AGA kitchen with bifold doors to the garden, a formal principal suite with walk-in dressing room and luxurious ensuite, plus five further bedrooms. Practical outbuildings include a cart lodge fitted as a gym with its own ensuite, a garage, and a home office with ensuite suitable for ancillary accommodation or flexible working.
Important practical points are stated plainly. The house is Grade II listed, which will make alterations and some modernisation more complex and require listed-building consents. Broadband speeds are very slow locally; anyone needing high-speed remote working or streaming should investigate alternatives. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the tenure is not specified here — these are material factors to check before commitment.
For families seeking a private, historic retreat with excellent local amenities and schools, this property is compelling: Lavenham village offers good primary schools, independent options nearby, regular community events and straightforward road links to Sudbury and Bury St Edmunds, plus rail connections toward London and Cambridge. The home is newly renovated throughout, presenting a high-spec, largely move-in-ready country lifestyle while retaining its period charm.
