Set within a tucked-away cul-de-sac in highly regarded Great Barton, this detached five-bedroom home delivers flexible living across generous rooms and almost half an acre of landscaped gardens. Bright open-plan living, a sun room and a main reception with floor-to-ceiling glazing create an easy family hub that flows out to terraces, decks and a covered area with hot tub. Solar panels with battery storage reduce running costs and the property is offered with no onward chain.
Accommodation is arranged across ground and first-floor wings to suit multigenerational living or an annexe setup: a ground-floor sitting room, double bedroom and shower room form a self-contained wing, while further ground-floor bedroom and hobby/laundry spaces provide practical versatility. Upstairs the principal suite includes a dressing room, with two additional bedrooms, a shower room and a snug area off the large landing.
Outside, the extensive rear lawn is planted with mature beech, silver birch and cherry trees and includes a large shed, greenhouse and chicken run. A long driveway serves multiple vehicles and leads to a substantial attached garage (27'6" x 15'5"). The plot’s size and layout offer scope for further garden projects or improvement subject to necessary consents.
Practical points to note: the house dates from the mid-20th century (1950–1966) so prospective buyers should allow for period-related maintenance or updates. Broadband speeds in the area are very slow and council tax is above average. Local amenities include a well-regarded primary school, village facilities and easy access to Bury St Edmunds and the A14 for broader services and transport links.
