An exceptional 3,500 sqft barn conversion set in about 1.2 acres, Yew Tree Barn combines generous living space with private, well-landscaped grounds. Constructed as a conversion in 2000 and improved since, the house offers high ceilings, oak and glass stair, and extensive fitted joinery that delivers a strong sense of quality throughout. The property is offered chain free and suits a family seeking spacious reception rooms and secure outdoor space close to Bury St Edmunds.
Accommodation is flexible and well‑appointed: four double bedrooms, three bathrooms, multiple reception rooms, a vaulted garden/games room and a large drawing room with wood burner. Practical features include underfloor heating throughout (oil-fired boiler), central vacuum, large fitted kitchen with granite worktops and a generous utility. A wing with bar, bathroom and sitting room offers clear potential for an annexe subject to necessary planning permission.
Outside the plot is a major asset: sweeping gravel drive, parking for 20+ cars, garaging, workshop, studio and summer house with power and lighting. Gardens are mostly lawned with raised beds and fruit trees, plus a terrace with hot tub — ideal for entertaining or family living. Fast broadband availability and low flood risk add to the site’s practicality.
Notable considerations: heating is oil-fired (higher running costs and off-grid fuel), drainage is private (treatment plant) and the property has timber-frame elements where insulation details are assumed rather than verified. Council Tax is band F (expensive). Any annexe use will require planning consent. These points are factual and help set realistic running and development expectations.
