The Stable Barn, Smallwood Farm House

A beautifully presented detached converted barn finished with an abundance of character and contemporary details, arranged over the ground floor. In brief, comprising a kitchen/breakfast/living room, sitting room and bedroom suite, with the added benefit of off-road parking and provision for electric car charging. Visitors can also enjoy sitting outside on the decking in the warmer spring/summer months or relaxing in a private garden area overlooking the surrounding fields. Situated in the enchanting Suffolk countryside, yet only a short drive to nearby Bury St Edmunds and other local places of interest.

Situated between the village of Felsham and Hessett, the Stable Barn enjoys a secluded position in open countryside, with the hamlet of Smallwood Green nearby and Bradfield Woods within easy walking distance.

The beautifully renovated Stable Barn forms part of a complete and rare 17th century linear farmstead known as Smallwood Farmhouse, the house itself being Grade II listed.

With attention to detail and a luxury finish, the owners have been keen to preserve aspects of the Stable Barn’s unique heritage, hence the inclusion of a ‘feature’ wall in the sitting room and bedroom which showcases the building’s timber framework, alongside the incorporation of a number of original beams.

Accessed via three wooden steps which lead up to a spacious decking area (an ideal place for dining al fresco in the warmer months or simply to enjoy an aperitif and watch the sun go down), the single storey accommodation opens directly into a large and spacious kitchen/dining area, fully equipped for all self-catering needs.

There is a separate comfortable living room and one double bedroom with a King size bed, and an adjoining spacious shower room. All the rooms benefit from high ceilings and the stunning picture windows ensure the rooms are light-filled whilst also affording spectacular views of the garden and neighbouring fields.

A private area of garden is clearly designated for guests to enjoy; the wider garden areas surrounding the Farmhouse itself are open annually for charity under the National Garden Scheme.

The vibrant market town of Bury St Edmunds is just a 15 minute drive away and with easy access to the A14, The Stable Barn is an ideal location for exploring West Suffolk and the further delights of the East Anglian region.
