The Property
The Firs is believed to date back as far as the 16th century with later editions added in the Georgian and Victorian era. The property itself is not listed and retains many period features including its classic Georgian frontage, inglenook fireplaces, sash windows, original timber floorboards and high ceilings throughout. The house has recently been extended in X with the addition of a large breakfast room, which is open plan to the kitchen. The property offers real potential to convert outbuildings into accommodation, office space or storage perfect for dual occupancy.
A new front porch way was added in X which leads into the reception hallway. On the ground floor are three principle reception rooms, two of which enjoy inglenook fireplaces. The farmhouse kitchen is really the heart of the home having been refitted a couple of years previous. The kitchen has a elegant island unit, 'Everhot' electric oven and a number of fitted base units. The adjacent open plan breakfast room has lovely bi-fold patio doors leading out onto the terrace. The large pantry, utility room, lobby and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation. Access to the first floor can be obtained by one of two staircases, which rise to their own independent landings. To the front of the house are three well proportioned bedrooms, and a family bathroom which has also been refitted by the current vendors. The two further bedrooms and refitted shower room are located to the rear of the house.
To the rear of the property is the former dairy, which has been partly converted into accommodation. The rooms would form a great workspace or annexe with two kitchens, two en-suites and a bedroom/sitting room.
Outside
The Firs is approached off a quiet lane with a gravel drive opening into a wide concrete central courtyard to the rear of the farmhouse. Situated around the courtyard are a number of outbuildings including a number of stables, cart lodges, workshop and a office block/potential annexe. At the back of the courtyard is a large Suffolk timber barn which measures 73' x 28' an ideal project which could be developed into further storage or a dwelling, subject to relevant planning consents. Beyond the barn are three further stables which benefit from a separate vehicular access back onto Manse Lane. To the rear and corner of the plot are charming wooded areas with a variety of specimen trees and shrubs, providing a private and secluded feel. The formal gardens can be found at the front and side of the house with lovely shrubs, planting and a new terrace area just outside the breakfast room. In total the grounds extend to 4.98 acres (sts).
Location
Situated in a rural position within the village of Cratfield, The Firs enjoys unspoilt rural views across arable fields and neighboring farmland. Cratfield has a public house and a wide network of footpaths, quiet road riding, with bridleways a hacking distance away for those who enjoy riding and walking.
The nearest shop is located in the neighbouring village of Laxfield, with further facilities available in the neighbouring market towns of Halesworth, Framlingham and Diss. Halesworth is approximately 7 miles away with the A12 that links the Suffolk heritage coast to Ipswich and beyond. The town also has a rail station with frequent trains to Ipswich with services running into London Liverpool Street taking approximately 90 minutes. Diss also benefits from a mainline train service which connects Norwich and London with further facilities including three supermarkets, a bustling high street and popular Friday antiques and bygone auctions.
