Location Pipps Farm Barn is located in a wonderful position along a farm track, just near two other dwellings. The property has the beauty of being particularly rural yet at the same time being close to Ipswich and all it offers. It is situated in the picturesque Fynn Valley with beautiful rolling countryside. Just a short distance from the property is Fynn Valley Golf Club and Terrace café. Ipswich is easily accessible, being just three miles, and provides a full range of local shopping and commercial facilities and has a thriving waterfront with various restaurants, hotels and cafés. Ipswich benefits from rail services to London's Liverpool Street station that take just over the hour.  

Description Pipps Farm Barn was converted/rebuilt approximately 17 years ago and much of it is timber, brick and block construction with weatherboarded elevations under a tiled roof. Of particular note is the reception hall with its vaulted ceiling and exposed timbers. As well as a spacious sitting room and also a kitchen/dining room there is a ground floor bedroom with en-suite. Also on the ground floor is a utility room and shower room. On the first floor is a large vaulted bedroom with en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. In addition are three further bedrooms and a family shower room. Adjacent to the barn is The Lodge which is a detached annexe that can be used as ancillary accommodation to the family home. This has an open plan kitchen/sitting/dining room, utility room, two bedrooms and a shower room.

Outside there is a substantial amount of parking as well las large pond. In addition, are two buildings. One is used as a triple bay car port with workshop, store and party room. The other is a relatively modern agricultural building measuring 78' x 49'. This could have scope to be converted to a separate residential unit under Class Q Permitted Development. The vendor nor agents have explored this but it should be noted that the property is not being sold with any form of overage clause.
