4 bed detached house for sale

The Street, Horham IP21

Enjoying a pleasing individual position, the property is set back from the road within the centre of the village and backs onto the beautiful surrounding rural countryside. Horham is a small village consisting of an attractive assortment of many period and modern properties within the idyllic north Suffolk countryside and still retains a strong and active local community helped by way of having a village post office/shop, village hall and fine church. The nearby village of Stradbroke offers further amenities as does the well served market town of Eye being some 6 or so miles to the south east.

The property was individually designed and built by a local builder in 2013 to high specification and is still presented in show home condition. The layout is well-designed, offering versatile living space at ground floor level and well-proportioned bedrooms at first floor level. The accommodation extends to approximately 1,800 square feet. The original design accommodated the option of adding accommodation at second floor level. However, the current vendors chose not to commission this, leaving the option available for future development if required. Heating is provided by a gas-fired central heating boiler (lpg) with underfloor heating at ground floor level and radiators at first floor level. Combined with high thermal insulation levels and uPVC double-glazed windows and doors, the property is extremely energy efficient. In 2015, the vendors installed 32 solar panels, separated into two systems: One serving the house and the other serving the cart lodge. The vendors have informed the agents that during the period June 2024 to June 2025, they generated a combined income of £1,799.

The accommodation is well laid out. A spacious entrance hall gives a welcoming first impression, with oak internal doors leading to the principal rooms. A standout feature is the impressive open-plan living area, which is essentially separated into three sections: A kitchen, a dining area, and a lounge. The kitchen is in excellent condition, offering extensive storage and integrated appliances, including a five-ring electric hob, double oven, fitted fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. Conveniently located off the kitchen is the utility room, providing useful space with good storage and room for white goods. The lounge area is also generously sized and enjoys being positioned at the rear of the property, with views and access to the rear gardens via large bifolding doors. Additionally, on the ground floor, there is a bright and spacious triple-aspect reception room, a versatile office/study, and a shower room. On the first floor, there are four well-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom has the luxury of an en-suite, and there is also a large family bathroom.

The property sits on approximately 4 acres of thoughtfully landscaped grounds that have been carefully cultivated over the years and are now beautifully established. At the rear of the property stands a substantial cart lodge featuring two bays alongside a single garage. Beyond the formal gardens lie four paddocks, perfectly suited for equestrian use. The grounds also feature an impressive second cart lodge, designed for easy conversion into annexe accommodation if required. This building already includes an installed shower room and offers 1,000 square feet of versatile space.
