THE PROPERTY
A most impressive, individual, architect designed detached house, standing in beautiful gardens of over 1 acre, in an attractive rural position abutting countryside. Presenting mellow red brick elevations under plain tiled roofs, this immaculately presented property has been much improved by the current vendors and boasts substantial accommodation of over 3,700 sq ft plus an office/gym over the triple garage. Built to an exceptionally high standard and specification 30 years ago, a programme of updating was carried out in 2016, to include a new kitchen, bathrooms and the addition of a conservatory. Prominent features of the property include a 30’ kitchen/breakfast /family room, four double bedrooms, four reception rooms, underfloor heating on the ground floor, alarm system, triple garage with room over, currently used as a gym but would make an ideal home office and beautiful grounds abutting undulating farmland.

An entrance vestibule with a tiled floor leads into an impressive reception hall, which features the stairs to the first floor and accesses the cloakroom and ground floor accommodation with a kitchen/breakfast/family room comprehensively fitted with a wide range of base and eye level units, Corian worksurfaces and include a pair of automatic opening eye level cupboards, integral appliances including an electric fired Aga with extractor over, Bosch double oven, Bosch dishwasher, fridge, wine fridge, Brita water filter tap, space for an American style fridge freezer and a breakfast and family area with a glazed side bay, further windows to the front aspect and a door leading into the utility, which has a range of base and eye level cupboards, a worksurface, space for appliances under, single drainer stainless steel sink, storage cupboard and a door to the garden. The inner hall leads to a sitting room, which has windows to the rear and side aspects and double doors lead to the conservatory, built on a brick plinth with UPVC double glazing and double doors leading to the rear garden. The dining room has two ceiling roses and a dual aspect and the drawing room features a red brick fireplace with bressummer beam, housing a wood burning stove, windows to three aspects and double doors to the garden. Continuing on the ground floor, there is a cloakroom and a study with a dual aspect.

On the first floor, a galleried landing with an airing cupboard and rear window leads to four double bedrooms with the principal bedroom suite featuring two walk-in wardrobes, windows to three aspects and an en-suite fitted with a remotely operated whirlpool bath, separate shower cubicle, vanity wash basin with cupboards under, low level wc, fully tiled walls and a towel radiator.

The family bathroom is fitted with a corner bath, separate large shower cubicle, vanity wash basin with cupboards under, low level wc, fully tiled walls and a towel radiator. All bedrooms enjoy picturesque views over the gardens and countryside beyond.

OUTSIDE
Old Clamp House is approached through an automatically operated five bar gate onto a gravel driveway and large parking area for numerous vehicles, a triple garage with three automatically operated up and over doors and has windows to the side and rear aspects and water connected. An outside staircase leads to a room above the garage measuring over 31’ by 13,’ which is currently used as a gym but would make an ideal home office. The remaining gardens to the front have areas of lawn with flowers and shrub borders. The extremely large rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with well stocked flower and shrub beds and borders, mature trees, summer house, large machinery store, garden shed, greenhouse and there is a large terrace area with retaining wall abutting the rear of the property, making an ideal alfresco entertaining area. There is mature hedging to the boundaries and the gardens abut undulating countryside to the side and rear boundaries. In all about 1.07 acres.

LOCATION
Old Clamp House stands in a picturesque rural location in the hamlet of Brown Street, conveniently located just 2 miles from Old Newton, which lies just 10 minutes from the town of Stowmarket, which has a mainline railway station to London’s Liverpool Street taking approximately 80 minutes.

Old Newton itself enjoys a thriving local community with a primary school, football and cricket club, village shop, Chinese takeaway and a fine parish church. In the neighbouring village of Haughley there is a Co-Op convenience store, public house, bakery and Indian restaurant.

Stowmarket offers a good range of everyday local shopping and for more comprehensive facilities the equidistant towns of Bury St Edmunds or Ipswich offer an extensive range of shopping and schooling in both the public and private sectors.

DIRECTIONS
From Bury St Edmunds head east along the A14 heading towards Stowmarket. Take the exit marked Stowmarket and at the top of the slip road take the first exit left on the roundabout. After a short distance take the right turn and follow into the village of Haughley. As you approach the centre of Haughley turn right signposted Old Newton and follow the road into the village. At the crossroads proceed straight over and continue for a further 1.25 miles and take the left turn into Brown Street. After about 0.75 of a mile Old Clamp House will be found on the left.
