Set on approximately 13 acres in a quiet Littleport hamlet, this substantial four-bedroom farmhouse pairs traditional character with extensive outbuildings and genuine equestrian potential. The detached main house offers a welcoming sitting room, a bright dining/reception room, boot and utility rooms, and four well-proportioned bedrooms — practical family accommodation with room for personalisation.
The property’s real strength is its outside space and buildings: multiple barns and stores, a large hay store, a garage, an office and six stables, plus both an indoor and outdoor riding arena. These facilities suit an equestrian household, hobby farmer or a buyer seeking storage and business flexibility in a rural setting.
Practical considerations are clear and important. There is only one bathroom for four bedrooms, the home dates from the 1930s and will need updating in places, and the main heating fuel is LPG (not a community supply). The site is in a medium flood-risk area and sits in an isolated hamlet location, which may affect insurance and access in severe weather.
Overall this is a rare countryside opportunity for buyers seeking land, equestrian facilities and flexible business or hobby use. It will particularly suit families or buyer-occupiers prepared to invest in modernisation, or investors looking to develop the extensive outbuildings and acreage.
