Substantial six-bedroom village house with annexe, orchard and three-acre paddock.
Six double bedrooms plus self-contained one-bedroom annexe with sun deck
Briarbank is a substantial six-bedroom detached village house set in just over 3.5 acres in historic Thorndon. The principal house was converted in 2010 and combines traditional Suffolk character — oak-framed windows, high ceilings and a redbrick chimneypiece — with contemporary additions such as an oak-vaulted garden room and bespoke tulipwood kitchen. The property offers flexible living for an extended family, including a self-contained annexe with its own kitchen, reception room, bedroom and sun deck.
The grounds are a standout asset: landscaped gardens with a wildlife pond and tiered terrace, an orchard of around 30 fruit trees and an adjoining three-acre paddock with its own road access suitable for equestrian or smallholding use. Practical outbuildings include a triple garage, ample parking and repurposed stables providing useful storage or workshop space. The house totals approximately 3,909 sq ft of accommodation across multiple levels, with a large reading room and balcony overlooking the gardens.
Buyers should note a few material points: the sale is subject to an overage, broadband speeds are reported slow and mobile signal is average—important for remote working. Heating descriptions reference both oil-fired systems and electric/air-source underfloor components; the property has an EPC rating of C. Overall this is a rare, family-orientated country home offering scope for multi-generational living, smallholding or lifestyle use, best suited to buyers seeking privacy and outdoor space in an established farming community.
