Full Details for 5 Bedroom Farm House for sale in Beccles, NR34 :
Beccles - 1.9 miles
Southwold - 11.8 miles
Norwich - 20.8 miles
It is not often we are lucky enough to be able to offer for sale a property that offers both rural solitude and proximity to the convenience of Beccles, but this is one of those times. Hidden at the end of a lane is Farther Farm, a five-bedroom house built in 1747 and full of the character and charm of a Georgian building. Three-quarters of an acre of gardens give on to open fields and meadows and two nearby footpaths provide peaceful walks in the idyllic landscape. The property would benefit from some modernisation but offers a rare opportunity to own your own piece of the Suffolk countryside.
Accommodation comprises briefly :
Entrance Hall
Sitting Room
Kitchen Dining Room
Utility Room
Bathroom
Pottery (possible double garage)
Office Area
Master Bedroom
Second Double Bedroom
Bedroom Three
Two Double Attic Bedrooms
The Property
The wide, half-glazed front door leads into an entrance hall where timber beams and pleasing proportions immediately announce the character of this charming house. Doors to the left and right lead to the sitting room and kitchen-dining room respectively. Straight ahead an open-banistered staircase rises to the first floor and another door leads to the bathroom. The french doors to the garden and the windows to two aspects make the kitchen-dining room a light and airy place, a wrought iron open fireplace provides the chance to make it cosy in the winter. A pantry style cupboard sits on one side of the fireplace and on the other, a door opens to two integral store rooms. These could be converted to enlarge the kitchen. A basic range of units including the sink, are set under the south facing window through which the glorious views over the rear gardens and fields beyond are guaranteed to ease the pain of even the most strenuous washing up. Across the hall is the well proportioned timber lined sitting room, dominated by a large, stunning red brick open fireplace. There are windows to the front and rear. A door from here leads to what was the pottery showroom/office. Equipped with plumbing for a sink and washing machine it would serve well as a large utility area. A door leads to the rear gardens and another to what is currently the pottery. This impressive space was originally a double garage and could be returned to its original use or further adapted depending on a purchasers choice (stpp). Upstairs in the main house, two double bedrooms are at opposite ends of the landing with a third, smaller room between. The double rooms have feature fireplace's and built in storage. From here views all around the uninterrupted countryside truly reveal how private the property is. A second staircase, next to the single room rises to two attic bedrooms. Beams line both of these fantastic rooms and dormer windows bring natural light. The larger of the two rooms opens to attic space for storage.
Outside
Approaching the property via the private roadway we pass open fields and ponds before arriving at the front of this attractive Farm House. The drive way opens to provide an ample parking and turning area before continuing to the end of the plot where access leads to the neighbouring fields and the public bridleways. The house sits central on its three quarter acre plot and boasts stunning field and meadow views from every aspect. The grounds are filled with a range of mature tress and shrubs, endless boundaries make the space feel even more at one as we look out. To the rear the garden is mainly laid to lawn whilst at the front and side of the property hard standing areas open to further lawned gardens.
Fixtures and Fittings
All fixtures and fittings including curtains are specifically excluded from the sale, but may be available in addition, subject to separate negotiation.
