4 bed detached house for sale

Hardings Lane, Bury St Edmunds IP31

Tucked away on a quiet no-through lane in Norton, Buttonhaugh House is surrounded by fields to the front and back, offering breathtaking countryside views and a peaceful setting. With walks straight out onto the fields and good local schools nearby, it’s the kind of home that blends rural tranquillity with family practicality.

Inside, the property is full of character. The living and dining rooms are standout spaces with exposed beams and two log burners - perfect for cosy evenings. The kitchen combines traditional charm with modern amenities, making it the heart of the home with a useful entry porch for wet wellies and coats. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three of which are generously sized, plus a smaller fourth room, and two bathrooms to serve the family.

The outside space makes this house even more special. The wrap-around garden is a great size, complete with a summer house and garden shed, while an additional parcel of west-facing land at the rear, purchased from neighbouring farmland, provides even more room to relax and enjoy the expansive views. It’s an idyllic spot for summer evenings or quiet weekends at home.

Practical features include a sizeable detached garage with loft space, plenty of off-road parking for three cars, and easy road parking for guests. The house is move-in ready but also offers scope for buyers to put their own stamp on it.

Buttonhaugh House is ideal for families looking to upsize into the countryside without losing easy access to amenities. Elmswell, just a 5-minute drive away, offers excellent connections, including a train station, shops, and everyday conveniences, while Stowmarket and Bury St Edmunds are within easy reach.
