Suffolk manor house with pool and tennis courts on market

Rectory Manor is a property set in the idyllic landscape of Great Waldingfield, a small village near the picturesque market town of Sudbury.

Now the property is run as a B&B by the current owners for part of the year, who then enjoy it as their family home for the remainder.

Rectory Manor spans across four floors, from the cellar beneath the house to the former staff quarters in the roof. 

The ground floor boasts huge dining and drawing rooms, with a library that was remodelled in the 1800s tucked away to the back of the property.

There is also a vast kitchen just off the reception hall. 

Five bedrooms can be found on the first floor of the manor, four of which have ensuite bathrooms. 

The master bedroom is at the rear of the property and has some of the best views of the surrounding countryside in the whole house. 

There is a further, much smaller bedroom at the top of the house, which also has access to an ensuite bathroom. 

This property comes with a renovated four-bed coach house on the site, which is perfect for those looking to live with elderly relatives or who would like to rent out the property as a B&B business.

While the properties are impressive, the grounds are even more so. 

Set within around 2.6 acres, the new owners of Rectory Manor will have access to a heated outdoor swimming pool and an on-site tennis court. 

Those interested in the property should contact David Burr Estate Agents at their Long Melford office to arrange a viewing.
