A truly unique architecturally designed country residence, based upon an A-frame structure, which the current owners has significantly improved and enhanced during their time, and now offering the most stylish interiors, with high quality finishes throughout.
When entering the property, you step into a welcoming, open hall which is flooded with natural light from the double sided full height windows and doors, and this hall connects the two wings. Opening into to the stunning kitchen/breakfast room with substantial island, this space truly is the heart of the home. The vaulted full height drawing room, flows from the kitchen, accessed by either side of the impressive fireplace, is quite the show stopper, with the full southern aspect being glass with bi-fold door, all opening out to the tranquil gardens with feature pond; almost as an ever changing painting.
To the western wing, is the open plan sitting/ dining room, again with bi-fold doors, and access to a study which is used as a guest bedroom with a shower room and doors to the garden. There is also a utility room and cloakroom.
The first floor, much like the rest of this fine home, oozes class, with its generous glass galleried landing, ideal as a reading area, and access to the bedrooms. In total there are four first floor bedrooms, two of which have en-suites, one has a dressing room, and another with a balcony.
Every aspect of this property is immaculate, and bathed in natural light, it is the perfect combination of modern design in stunning undulating countryside.
The property is located in an elevated position with a private driveway that provides parking for a number of vehicles to the front of the property as well as a cartlodge. The gardens are a notable feature and are perfectly suited to the family market or keen gardener. To the west of the property the grounds are primarily laid to lawn and over time have served as two paddocks with a field shelter/stable unit. To the east of the house is another lawned area which is bordered heavily with mature trees. Whilst to the south and rear of the property, beyond the veranda, are patios and decking that create ideal areas for entertaining whilst enjoying views over the beautiful pond with rockery.
The property is set in a tranquil position on the outskirts of Monks Eleigh, a sought after village surrounded by undulating countryside within the Brett Valley. The village offers a public house, shop, Post Office, Church and playing field.
The village sits amongst other traditional chocolate box villages and hamlets with plenty of local amenities such as in the nearby medieval village of Lavenham (6 miles), one of England’s finest medieval villages with its beautiful Church and market square offering an excellent range of facilities including grocery stores, a pharmacist and a post office, as well as galleries, speciality shops, fine restaurants, hotels and pubs. It is also conveniently located for Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury and Stowmarket.
More comprehensive facilities can be found in the historic market town of Hadleigh (5 miles) and the Cathedral town of Bury St Edmunds (16 miles), which offers a full range of schooling, recreational and shopping facilities. There is excellent schooling in both the private and public sectors and a range of swimming pools, health clubs and golf clubs. For the rail commuter, Manningtree station is about a 30 minute drive and has a regular rail service to London Liverpool Street taking approximately 60 minutes.
There are a number of sought after schools in the area and well regarded independent schools including Old Buckenham Hall and Littlegarth School.
