Bullen Hall

THE PROPERTY

Bullen Hall is a substantial 1600s (with later additions to the rear) Grade Two Listed farmhouse which sits in secluded, undulating grounds.



The house is in need of modernisation however it is well laid out including three nicely proportioned reception rooms on the ground floor, two of which have fireplaces. The kitchen is large enough for a good-sized breakfast table and features a pantry; it has views towards the pond at the side of the house and over the front garden.



There are four bedrooms on the first floor which share the use of a family bathroom. On the second floor there are two attic rooms, although these would require the addition of a staircase to be considered suitable for normal use.



The house has good head height for a property of its age and period features include studwork, ceiling beams, original doors and an inglenook fireplace.



GROUNDS AND OUTBUILDINGS

The grounds measure 1.63 acres with the house positioned close to the centre.



There are four detached outbuildings including two red brick barns at the rear of the house. These are in need of structural repair but have great potential for development (subject to planning) into games barns, annexes or offices. At the front of the house there is an additional timber-framed barn and a four-bay cart lodge.



A circular driveway approaches the property from the front and a pond sits on the northern boundary; a paddock that measures 0.4 of an acre sits behind the red-brick barns.



LOCATION

The property is accessed via a 500-metre private drive which it shares with a number of farm buildings.



The village of Bramford which includes a primary school, a Co-op supermarket and a public house, is just over a mile from the property.



Ipswich town centre is just four miles from the front door as is Ipswich mainline station which provides a direct service into London Liverpool Street with a journey time of around 70 minutes.

A number of barns which are located out of sight (around 100 meters from the farmhouse) may in due course be subject to a planning application for conversion to residential use.



A footpath runs adjacent to the northern boundary but does not cross the grounds.

 

The new owners of the farmhouse will be granted a right of way to access the property with any repairing liabilities to be agreed.



As the photos and site plan show, two lines of pylons run to the northwest of the property with the closest being around 100 meters from the house. These pylons will not be affected by the proposed development of the local power network.

Bramford substation is located around 500 meters from the property and is visible from the drive, but not from the house.
