Why this property will seduce you
- Ideal Country Setting: Preserved rural environment with natural privacy and mature woods.
- Refined Historic Architecture: Ancient beams, exposed brick, and harmonious zoned spaces.
- Versatile Independent Retreat: Barn cottage with office space, bathroom, kitchen, bedroom.
From ancient, weathered beams and exposed brickwork to a secret library door revealing a hideaway, every corner of this home tells a story and with modern luxury woven seamlessly throughout, this home is as comfortable as it is captivating and offers an atmosphere of refined country living, wrapped in character, warmth, and architectural drama. STEP INSIDE
Stepping into a thoughtful porch, there is space to decamp muddy boots after a country stroll, such a necessity in a country residence. From here you enter a stunning kitchen with practical slate floor, bespoke window shutters, crafted cabinets blending with beams, plus modern double fan ovens, an induction hob, and space for an American-style fridge freezer, allowing chefs all they need to cook up a family feast, with a large table to enjoy casual dining. It's a favourite spot in summer, remaining cool yet light - the perfect place to escape the heat of the day. The cloakroom is just to the side, and from the kitchen you step into the vast, vaulted reception room, with magnificent beam work and thoughtfully zoned spaces. A book nook or library area, with two armchairs perfectly positioned for morning papers and garden views, sits alongside a formal dining area enjoying picture window vistas of the grounds and a log burner. A music zone and a cosy sofa section by a further fireplace, overlooking trees and shrubs, make this the go-to spot in winter. The impressive fireplace runs floor to ceiling with exposed brickwork and a small staircase leading to a minstrel's gallery. To the right of the sofas is cupboard space known as the priest's bolt hole. This vaulted space is wonderfully light, with floor-to-ceiling windows, and makes a fabulous entertaining area when family and friends come together for celebrations. EVERYBODY WELCOME
A converted barn cottage is also included, currently used as a bespoke working from home space, and conveniently separated from the main house keeping the work life balance intact. The office space would make a superb gym. Being north facing, into the walled courtyard, it is always a pleasantly cool and private space in summer. The kitchen, shower room and bedroom make it ideal for guests or multigenerational lifestyles and is accessible for those requiring one level living with the office becoming a sitting/dining area. If looking for ancillary income there is potential for premium holiday accommodation, subject to planning of course.
SLEEPING SOUNDLY
In the barn, cleverly separated from the social spaces, the three ground-floor bedrooms (one currently used for home working) all offer access to outside terraces with peaceful views. The study and guest bedroom, with its own en suite complete with underfloor heating, open out onto a terrace, created by the current owners to make the most of morning sun. The principal bedroom boasts his and hers sinks and tasteful, high end décor offering a serene, spa like ambience. The private terrace off this bedroom faces south and is used by the current owners anytime from lunchtime onwards to chase the sun – imagine sitting here with a G&T overlooking woodland and listening to birdsong. Stairs from the dining end of the great room lead to a landing, ideal as a spot for peaceful ironing, and leads via library shelving to a secret hideaway. This makes an ideal teenager's den, large enough for bed, desk, and social space and with its own private bathroom and it also lends itself well as a nursery suite for visiting families with young children. STEP OUTSIDE
Nestled within a generous, mature plot the property enjoys a tranquil country garden with established trees and natural privacy. The current owners added a new driveway sweeping round to a walled courtyard and double garage and have create defined areas within the gardens. An established pond attracts a variety of nature at the far end of the grounds, whilst mature woodland, where a hammock swings between trees in summer, offers a different atmosphere. In the working part of the garden, raised beds for grow your own veggies and a spectacular dahlia bed provide a feast for the senses in the warmer months with the smell of herbs and colourful floral displays. The whole grounds are enclosed making it a safe haven for children and pets. The courtyard has an inner gate too, ideal when wanting to keep the menagerie a little closer to hand.
ON THE DOORSTEP
Nestled on the beautiful Suffolk Coast, Hollesley is a thriving village benefiting from a friendly pub that serves food, a garage for car servicing, a Morrisons shop, a post office, and a well-regarded village primary school. The active village hall offers regular events and seasonal get-togethers, and also produces a community magazine. Alderton, just five minutes away, provides a highly regarded GP surgery. Nearby Woodbridge boasts an Ofsted-rated 'Outstanding' secondary school, Farlingaye High, and the sought-after independent Woodbridge School.
HOW FAR IS IT TO
The surrounding area offers much to enjoy whatever you're looking for - village pubs in nearby villages, fine dining at The Unruly Pig in Bromeswell and The Greyhound in Pettistree, and cultural gems like Snape Maltings, Sutton Hoo, and the Suffolk Heritage Coast (with pretty towns like Southwold and Aldeburgh to explore). Outdoor nature lovers benefit from unspoilt landscapes and Rendlesham Forest, which offer endless opportunities for walking and cycling, while the River Deben presents opportunities for sailing. For commuters, Melton and Woodbridge offer rail links to Ipswich and London Liverpool Street (just 90 minutes away). DIRECTIONS
Continuing along Heath Road from Woodbridge go past RAF Woodbridge, signposted towards Hollesley, continue this straight stretch, driving through the forest and open commons, without turning off at any of the smaller side roads. Continue following the signs into Hollesley, turn right onto The Street following the road until it becomes Alderton Rd just over a small hump-back bridge. Turn right onto Bushey Lane, follow this to the end of the lane and The Old Barn House is the last property on the righthand side.What Three Words Location
