PROPERTY SUMMARY

HOME TO HORSEPOWER; RELAXED ‘LOCK-UP & LEAVE’ LIVING AT THIS IMMACULATE BARN CONVERSION WITH FAR-REACHING ‘GOLDEN HOUR’ COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS AND LOW MAINTENANCE GARDENS, NESTLED ON THE EDGE OF DESIRABLE VILLAGE CLOSE TO HISTORIC BURY ST. EDMUNDS.

This meticulous high-quality restoration by well-regarded barn conversion specialists Dow Brandeston in 2007 includes piped sound systems, ambient mood lighting and underfloor heating: a perfect fusion of history and modernity. Today, beautifully conceived and updated interiors glisten following a comprehensive programme of refurbishments in recent years, which have transformed the barn into a much loved home. Its impressive octagonal turreted frontage – now a delightful relaxing sitting room – is a rare example of a horse-engine house in Suffolk and that makes No.3 undeniably the most architecturally eye-catching in this range of first-class converted accommodation. A carved stone entablature pays homage to Sir T Gage ‘Built 1849’, former owner of neighbouring Hengrave Hall Estate and for whom the barn would have once served. Of particular note is the dramatic double-height reception hall with engineered volumes of steel and glass forming a galleried staircase and suspended landing, complemented by a stunning array of exposed beamwork; large study; spectacular open-plan kitchen/dining space with statement stove; enchanting principal bedroom suite with desirable walk-in wardrobe. The exceptional lofty ceilings throughout, combined with the inter-connecting flow of spaces, are ideal for entertaining.

LOCATION

The property lies on the edge of a semi-rural and much favoured village – only four miles north west of the fine Suffolk cathedral town of Bury St. Edmunds. The University City of Cambridge is easily reached via the A14 east-west major road link, which is accessed via neighbouring Risby village to facilitate commuting ease, and with the M11 providing a fast route to London. Reputable private and state schools, an eclectic range of high street and independent shops, and some the country’s finest restaurants – including the only Michelin star in Suffolk – and leisure facilities can be found within a short drive as are the majestic rambling Lackford Lakes and Cavenham Heath.
