Set within a quiet Suffolk hamlet, Cross Barn is a recently renovated five-bedroom barn conversion that combines period character with contemporary comforts. Exposed beams, vaulted living space and a floating wood burner create immediate impact, while a new kitchen, bathrooms, roof, windows and boiler reduce short-term maintenance worries. The property sits in circa 0.4 acres with a large rear lawn, patio, courtyard and field views — an attractive setting for family life or flexible rural living.
Accommodation is well arranged for multi-generational use or home-working: a spacious ground-floor principal bedroom with roll-top bath sits alongside versatile reception rooms, a gym and a separate home office connected to the double garage. The open-plan, vaulted sitting room and dining spaces with French doors maximise light and garden access. A secondary kitchen/utility supports the main Aga-equipped kitchen and practical everyday use.
Practical considerations are clear and factual. Heating is oil-fired and the house is served by a private drainage system; broadband speeds in the area are slow and mobile signal is average. The EPC is rated E and council tax is in Band G — buyers should factor running costs into their long-term budget. There is potential to negotiate additional land adjoining the plot if more outdoor space is required.
Cross Barn will suit buyers seeking a characterful rural home within reach of market towns and rail links (Diss). It offers immediate move-in condition after a major refurbishment, spacious adaptable accommodation and handsome gardens, balanced by higher running costs and limited digital connectivity common to remote communities.
