This boutique style converted and furnished barn in the quiet Suffolk countryside offers a perfect hideaway for two. The property is set in the spacious grounds of a traditional farmhouse, together with another holiday home, near the little village of Gosbeck. Enjoy peaceful walks along a network of footpaths from your front door, taking in the wildlife and wide skies. Meet the 80 plus residents of Suffolk Owl Sanctuary, along with other birds of prey, red squirrels and meerkats. Or pack up a picnic for a stroll around Needham Lakes and nature reserve. Both are within 5 miles. The spectacular Helmingham Hall Gardens, surrounding a historic, moated manor house are just 2 miles away, while Woodbridge, a delightful town on the River Deben with wonderful waterside walks and independent shops, is within 10.5 miles.
Original ceiling beams, and tongue and grove panelling enhance the character of this enticing rural getaway. Enter from the patio, past an area for coats and boots, and step into the charming, country-style bespoke kitchen. Stocked with all you need to rustle up delicious meals, it houses a small wooden dining table and chairs. Leading off the kitchen is an opulent bathroom, housing a splendid antique copper bath and a corner shower. Climb the stairs to a spacious open-plan living room, with a fine vaulted ceiling and lovely country views from every window. A sumptuous chesterfield and an antique leather club chair provide comfortable seating, with a cosy corner wood burner. At the opposite end of the room is a gorgeous, king-size brass bed, dressed in pretty linens. Cushions, rugs, lamps and small items of vintage furniture add to the charm of this inviting space.
Outside, the private enclosed garden has a large patio with outdoor furniture, a gas BBQ and an outdoor fireplace, perfect for star gazing on chilly nights.
