Grade II listed barn conversion with period features and vaulted sitting/dining room
Firs Barn is an impressive Grade II listed barn conversion set in about 2.75 acres of formal gardens, paddocks and woodland. The house blends high, vaulted reception spaces with exposed timbers and a large inglenook fireplace, centred on a spectacular sitting/dining room and a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room. Three principal bedrooms (two en-suite), a study/bedroom four and generous ancillary outbuildings make this a flexible family home with room for hobbies, offices or home studios.
Outside, a long gravel drive leads to a two-bay cart lodge with room above, workshop, stable block and multiple stores — excellent for small-scale equestrian use or independent businesses. Established borders, natural ponds and fenced paddocks provide privacy and scope for gardening, paddock use or gentle landscaping; a nearby field may be available to rent separately.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status, which will restrict alterations and may complicate some conversions; planning drawings for additional accommodation exist but have not been submitted. Services include oil-fired heating and private drainage, and Council Tax sits at Band F, so running costs should be factored into budgets. With ultrafast broadband and good road/rail links to Ipswich and beyond, this is a rare rural family home combining character, space and practical outbuildings.
