Pond Barn
Church Farm, Dennington, Nr Framlingham, Suffolk
Pond Barn is an attached traditional Suffolk Barn, aptly named as it overlooks a picturesque natural pond and has a further pond within its grounds. This is a highly individual property offering an imaginative layout, with an impressive 6.5m x 4.5m kitchen/breakfast room overlooking the pond and an equally impressive first floor vaulted sitting room which sits above and enjoys fine views across the pond and surrounding countryside beyond. Both feature a wealth of exposed timbers.
The ground floor bedroom wing offers flexible use accommodation with up to four south facing bedrooms, a family bathroom and en suite shower room. Two bedrooms overlook an attractive secluded courtyard and the other two overlook mature gardens.
A feeling of quality pervades throughout, solid oak ledge doors with Suffolk latches open to all rooms, a cooking range and solid wood surfaces grace the bespoke fully fitted kitchen. Oil fired central heating to classic column radiators warms the rooms. Wherever possible the original beams and structure of the barn are revealed. The roofs are tiled with hand made clay pan tiles and the exterior walls clad in traditional black shiplap. Traditional style ironmongery is used on the windows and doors while all external glass is doubled glazed and toughened where necessary.
The property extends in all to about 1.5 acres. The courtyard at the rear is paved in sandstone and the driveway to the front is gravelled. There is a newly constructed, traditional style double cart lodge with an adjoining workshop/store, beyond which is a grassland meadow enclosed by natural hedgerow and post and rail fencing, which includes a second picturesque pond.
