Description

A Captivating Country Barn with Contemporary Charm.

Set amidst the peaceful countryside on the edge of the popular village of Wangford, this stunning barn conversion perfectly blends traditional character with modern comfort. A home of striking proportions and inviting warmth, it offers a lifestyle defined by space, light, and rustic elegance — all within easy reach of Southwold, Dunwich, and the unspoilt Suffolk Heritage Coast. Behind its handsome red brick exterior lies an interior that exudes charm at every turn, with exposed beams, brick floors, and solid timber doors lending authenticity and craftsmanship throughout.

The impressive 30-foot reception hall immediately sets the tone — a magnificent entrance space that currently doubles as a games room and social hub, ideal for welcoming family and friends. The principal reception room lies to the rear, where a triple aspect floods the space with natural light and French doors open directly onto the terrace and garden beyond. At its heart stands a grand inglenook fireplace with a cast-iron log burner — the perfect focal point for evenings spent by the fire or relaxed gatherings with guests. At the heart of the home, the country kitchen radiates warmth and practicality. A classic pine finish complements the cream Rayburn, housed within an oversized fireplace, while an adjoining pantry provides excellent storage for culinary essentials. Adjoining is the family snug — an inviting retreat with vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers, and another log burner, creating the perfect atmosphere for quiet relaxation. The ground floor also offers two bedrooms and a stylish shower room, making this home ideal for multi-generational living or those requiring single-level accommodation.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom impresses with a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows framing far-reaching countryside views, bespoke wardrobes, and a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room. Three further double bedrooms and a delightful family bathroom complete the first floor, the latter featuring a freestanding clawfoot bath and traditional high-level WC — a nod to the barn’s rural heritage.

Outside, the grounds are as thoughtfully designed as the interior. A large parking area and loggia provide ample space for vehicles, while the walled terrace offers the perfect spot for entertaining with its pizza oven and provision for a hot tub. Beyond lies a tranquil garden, bordered by mature hedging and vibrant planting — a private haven for outdoor living. Whether enjoyed as a full-time residence or a profitable holiday home, this exceptional property offers an unrivalled combination of style, seclusion, and lifestyle appeal in one of Suffolk’s most desirable settings. The property is currently run as a holiday let. As a buyer you can either have these bookings moved over to you, or the property can be offered with vacant possession depending on your wishes.
