2 The Old Granary, Needham Road, Coddenham Suffolk, IP6 9UA A beautifully converted detached barn offering stylish contemporary living which combines perfectly with the rustic retained barn ambience. Description The Old Granary has just completed a sympathetic conversion to provide a stunning luxurious residence which affords wonderful country views over the surrounding countryside. The Old Granary is part of a former farmstead which also includes a farmhouse and two other residential barns each set in and enjoying their own grounds. A long shared driveway flanked by fields leads round to an impressive front gravelled entrance courtyard and the property which stands proudly in its grounds bordering onto and overlooking fields. The conversion has given great attention to detail to ensure a high quality stylish finish which includes underfloor oil central heating to the downstairs, traditional radiators upstairs, hardwood double glazing, oak doors throughout with forged door and window furniture, luxurious fitted kitchen with granite work surfaces, sumptuously appointed bathroom suites and a wealth of exposed timbers along with some fine engineered boarded flooring and flagstone flooring. The property further benefits from an alarm to the house and workshop. The accommodation which is partially open-plan downstairs is particularly light and airy with high ceilings, some of which are vaulted upstairs. It also incorporates much glazing to allow the maximum flow of natural light and appreciation of the surrounding views. On the ground floor glazed doors open to a very welcoming dining hall with openplan access to the kitchen and living room. The kitchen is bespoke fitted and includes granite work surfaces, whilst the openplan living enjoys again much glazing along the front wall along with a feature log burner and flagstone flooring. From the living room there is access to the garden room which is heavily glazed on three sides also benefiting from flagstone tiled flooring. This room is very versatile in its use, currently housing a dining snooker table (negotiable) and lends itself to use as a formal dining room or additional reception room. The remainder of the ground floor accommodation comprises sun room, shower room, utility and third bedroom. On the first floor there is an impressive galleried landing accessed by an oak staircase which leads to a family bathroom and two bedrooms. The master bedroom benefits from a large walk-in wardrobe and en-suite. Outside there are pleasant grounds. To the front is a gravelled courtyard being partially enclosed by feature flint walling and giving access to the garage, store and workshop. The majority of the gardens are to the side and rear of the property, being laid to lawn and bordering onto fields. Within the garden is a sheltered patio and further outbuildings including timber garden shed, two wood stores, borehole water pump house and boiler room. The gardens are largely enclosed by flint walling, panel fencing and post and rail fencing. About the Area Coddenham is approximately seven miles north of Ipswich and is a typical English village with church, village shop, country club, recreation ground and leisure centre. It won Village of the Year in 2002 for its community spirit and there are some fantastic country walks within the village. There are a range of independent schools nearby and the property is located in the catchment for Stonham Aspal Primary School and Debenham High School and further amenities can be found in the towns of Needham Market, Stowmarket, Debenham, Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds. Directions From Coddenham, proceed over the bridge bearing right along the Needham Road towards the A140 and after about quarter of a mile the driveway down to The Old Granary will be seen on the right hand side. Vendors Statement After much searching we found and bought this former farmstead ten years ago. We fell in love with the delightful peaceful location, but we also wanted to be near a village that is welcoming and offers social activity. Coddenham certainly achieves all that. Only minutes walk across footpaths to the village this is an idyllic spot. We plan to live here for many years moving into the last of the converted barns, all of which including The Old Granary offer distinctive homes. The accommodation comprises: Glazed french doors and side panels to either side to:
