3 bed detached house for sale

Parham, Woodbridge, Suffolk IP13

Occupying an idyllic setting within approximately 6.9 acres, Little Lonely Farm presents a rare opportunity to embrace an exceptional country and equestrian lifestyle.

At its heart is a beautifully refurbished three-bedroom character farmhouse, complemented by a separate self-contained two-bedroom annexe, first-class equestrian facilities and an excellent range of barns and outbuildings.

Original features blend effortlessly with carefully considered modern improvements, while sweeping countryside views, established grounds and versatile accommodation create a home of remarkable warmth, privacy and possibility.

The farmhouse has been comprehensively refurbished, while retaining characterful details including an original Crittall window and door, quarry-tiled floors and exposed beams. Improvements include a full rewire, partial replumbing, substantial damp-proofing where required, replastering, new carpets, double-glazed external windows and doors, anthracite column radiators and renewed flat roofs, completed approximately two years ago and covered by a long guarantee.

Double patio doors open into the entrance hall, where original quarry tiles immediately set the tone. A front cloakroom has an obscured window, WC, wash basin with fitted vanity unit and tiled floor. The hall continues past useful understairs space housing the electrical consumer unit, a side window and the staircase, with an attractive original Crittall-style internal window opening towards the dining room.

Through an original Crittal doorway, the kitchen is both practical and welcoming, with a range of wall and base cabinetry, quartz worktops and a one-and-a-half-bowl ceramic sink overlooking the gardens. Two skylights draw in additional natural light, while a Rangemaster cooker with seven-ring gas hob, an electric double oven, grill, storage drawer and extractor provides an impressive focal point.

Beyond the kitchen is a particularly generous utility or study area, with a worktop, space and plumbing for a washing machine, tumble dryer and room for several fridges/freezers. A rear window, tiled flooring and beams add character, and the two-year-old boiler is housed here. The room leads into a substantial pantry offering excellent additional storage.
The dining room is a warm and characterful space, with exposed beams and a handsome brick hearth housing a wood-burning stove beneath a timber mantel. Two rear windows overlook the orchard. From here, the living room enjoys windows to several aspects, filling the space with light; together with patio doors leading out to the large orchard, exposed beams, a wonderful and substantial curved brick fireplace with a second wood-burning stove create an atmospheric centrepiece.

First Floor

The first floor provides three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a bright retreat with rear views and an en suite bathroom featuring a freestanding slipper bath, wash basin, towel rail and obscured side window. This bedroom also provides access to a small loft within the upper eaves. The second bedroom is similarly generous, with beautiful countryside views to the rear. Bedroom three looks across part of the garden and orchard towards open countryside and includes a large fitted cupboard with lighting and hanging space.

A long, bright landing has a front window, column radiator and a large walk-in cupboard with hanging and shelving space. The stylish family shower room is fully tiled to the walls and floor and includes a generous walk-in shower with rainfall and handheld fittings, a wash basin with vanity unit, WC and a dual-fuel radiator for year-round use.

Equestrian Facilities and Grounds

The equestrian facilities are arranged for ease of use and include four paddocks, a 40m x 20m manège with a FlexiRide surface and a stable block with six stables, feed room, tack room, and an open bay. Electricity and running water are connected, and CCTV covers key areas including the front gate, stables, manège and driveway, with convenient phone access for the new owners.

The grounds are enclosed by mature hedging and trees and include a copse, an orchard with a variety of fruit trees and a pond. Several paved and shingled seating areas provide places to enjoy the setting, while the substantial driveway offers parking for numerous vehicles. Outbuildings include an open two-bay barn, a further barn with potential for residential use subject to planning permission, a single garage and two large sheds. There is also an outside toilet with sink, together with an outside tap and outside power point.

Annexe and Practical Information

A self-contained two-bedroom annexe adds considerable flexibility, whether imagined as guest accommodation, multigenerational living or a rewarding refurbishment project tailored to the next owner’s needs.
