A farmhouse with grounds covering around three acres is up for sale in Rattlesden, near Stowmarket, for a guide price of £1.65m.
Walnut Tree Farm has been given a Grade II listing as it has historical relevance and architectural importance.
The property was renovated back in 2004 from the ground up, and selling agent Bedfords said that it has been “meticulously restored” with high-quality materials used throughout.
The ground floor accommodation comprises an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, family room, kitchen/diner, study, WC and utility room.
The sitting room is triple-aspect and has pamment flooring. This space also has an inglenook fireplace featuring an oak bressummer, iron grate and canopy.
The double-aspect dining room also has an inglenook fireplace with a solid-fuel stove on a brick hearth.
The family room is the largest space in the house, making it ideal for entertaining guests or relaxing, and has oak flooring, cabinet space for extra storage and large windows with views overlooking the garden.
The kitchen/diner is well-equipped with a contemporary range of units, a Silestone worktop, an island with breakfast bar and a double oven with gas-hob and extractor. There is also an integrated dishwasher and a wine cooler.
Within the inner hallway there is a WC with hand wash basin, a cupboard that can be used for coat storage and a study, which features an en suite shower room, with the potential to be used as another bedroom.
The utility room completes the ground floor, featuring plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, as well as the oil-fired boiler.
The first floor is accessed via two sets of stairs. The original stairs lead to three bedrooms, while the stairs in the family room lead to two other bedrooms.
In the master bedroom there is a fireplace and an en-suite shower room, while one of the other bedrooms has an en suite with a slipper bath with shower overhead, and another has a shower room.
The two bedrooms accessed via the family room stairs both include fitted wardrobes and en-suite bathrooms, and one has vaulted ceilings with a view of the garden.
Adjoining the property is a self-contained annexe, which could be used seen as a potential business opportunity.
It has a double-aspect sitting room and a kitchen/dining room with an integrated oven and hob, dishwasher, fridge, freezer and washer dryer.
The bathroom serves the two vaulted bedrooms in the annexe and has a large bath, separate shower cubicle and WC.
