Enjoying an elevated rural setting with panoramic views, a substantial house and garaging range set in 3¼ acres of parkland grounds.

Enjoying an idyllic rural setting at the end of a no through private lane, Star Ridge is aptly named, standing in an elevated position with panoramic views across the Suffolk night sky. A long driveway sweeps through parkland grounds with many mature trees leading to an ample parking area to the side of the house. Thought to date from the 1930s the original house is understood to have had a number of extensions and currently offers accommodation on three floors extending to some 3,538 sq ft.

The property benefits from an oil-fired central heating system and features a new open plan fully fitted 25ft kitchen/breakfast room. There are two receptions either side of a central hallway, plus a large conservatory, whilst beyond the kitchen the layout accommodates a self-contained one bedroom annexe with its own living room, shower and kitchen. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a small fifth with the staircase continuing to a second floor attic bedroom together with access onto a wide roof terrace.

Adjacent to the house is a substantial triple garage/workshop behind which a range of former stables and dog kennels are currently used as utility storage and workshop. There is a swimming pool (not heated) with a terrace surround and in all the property extends to about 3.25 acres.
