Summary - SURRIDGES FARMHOUSE HANCHETT END HAVERHILL CB9 7RP
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Five-bedroom farmhouse with large gardens, double garage and annexe potential.
- Five bedrooms in a detached Victorian farmhouse
Surridges Farmhouse is a charming five-bedroom detached farmhouse set on a large private plot close to Haverhill. The house combines period character — high ceilings and a log-burning stove — with generous living space: a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, separate reception rooms and a light garden room opening onto a paved terrace. The double garage (power, light, sink) and driveway provide parking for about 3–4 cars, plus outbuildings and a working well in the gardens.
The plot is a major asset: mature, cleverly arranged gardens with distinct seating and utility areas give the feel of country living with space for children to play, gardening projects or entertaining. There is clear annexe potential above the garage for multi-generational use or additional income, subject to consents.
Practical considerations: the house has two bathrooms serving five bedrooms, and the solid brick walls (original build pre-1900) are assumed uninsulated — older construction means likely ongoing maintenance and possible improvement costs. Council tax is noted as expensive. Broadband is fast and flood risk is low, making the property practical for modern family life despite its historic fabric.
This home will suit families seeking space, character and outdoor privacy, or buyers who value outbuildings and scope to extend or adapt. The property is presented well but buyers should budget for routine upkeep and possible insulation or retrofit works to improve energy efficiency.
