About this property
Turkey Hall is a 16th century Grade II listed 4/5 bedroom detached historic cottage set within 4.5(Est) acres in the heart of Suffolk Countryside.
With incredible accommodation set over 3 floors and spread over 3,289sqf, this substantial home is an absolute historical gem and you have the chance to call it your own.
Having been sympathetically modernised and taken care of over the last 30 years, you'll find modern convenience blended with period charm throughout the home. This truly is a charming and historically significant property, protected due to its architectural or cultural importance.
As you enter the property, you'll find yourself in the original heart of the home; the living room, with its impressive Inglenook style fireplace and cosy surround, with beams overhead and "Priest Hole" style cupboards. Adjoining this room is the dining room, or second reception room, with dual aspect windows, ideal as a dining room, or music room. You'll find a winding staircase up to the first floor, and a country style extended kitchen with tiled flooring behind the Inglenook fireplace, with separate boot room/porch leading out the side of the home.
To the rear of the home, you'll see the downstairs WC and study/bedroom 5 incorporated into the accommodation, completing the generous ground floor space, as well as the second staircase to the first floor.
The first floor of the home features the master bedroom with shower room ensuite, as well as bedrooms 3 and 4, served by the family bathroom with its 4 piece suite.
The converted attic is incredible, offering ample space to be used as a bedroom, or art studio.
Now, another real jewel of this home is the 4.5 acres of land (subject to measurement) that surrounds it. The garden is expansive, with well-maintained lawns, flower beds, and a few mature trees including several huge oak trees, copper beeches & ash, to name a few. There is also an established orchard of at least 12 fruit trees, which is a beautiful space to enjoy and enjoy the fruits of throughout the year.
There are several small ponds, a charming summerhouse. There is a disused horse lunging area and paddocks as well as a triple stable block and substantial garage outbuilding. There are 18 Solar Panels on the land offering £2,500 a year feed in tariffs, a fantastic modern touch to the home, as well as battery storage and an Electric Vehicle charger point in the garage.
Additionally, with the potential to split the land, you could see possibilities for development. Perhaps an area could be zoned for building additional properties. The land could also lend itself to agricultural pursuits, such as keeping animals or growing crops, depending on your vision.
Turkey Hall offers a blend of privacy and accessibility, with the option to enjoy the countryside tranquillity while being close enough to amenities or good transport links. Whether you're looking for a family home with room to grow or a space to develop further, this house and land offer incredible potential for the right buyer.
Bacton is a small, picturesque village located in the county of Suffolk, and offers a charming blend of rural tranquillity and accessible convenience.
