The Paddocks, Stradbroke IP21 5HE

PROPERTY The property is an outstanding detached family home built by Hopkins Homes in a Georgian style within an exclusive enclave of luxury detached houses. The property offers spacious and highly versatile accommodation across three floors and offers excellent entertaining space.

The front door opens to the entrance hall with a dining room to one side and an impressive double aspect living room to the other with a large feature fireplace. The living room opens via bi-folding doors into the substantial conservatory with a door to the garden. The vaulted kitchen is a real highlight of the property with views over the garden and paddock beyond. It is comprehensively fitted with a range of wall and base units and is open to the breakfast room. There is a beneficial utility room with built in fridge and freezer, multiple cupboards, work surface and sink plus a cloakroom.

On the first floor there is a galleried landing to the centre. To one side is the principal bedroom suite with dressing area and ensuite
bathroom with separate shower. There is a guest suite to the front and further double bedroom and separate bathroom. On the second floor are two large bedrooms with far reaching views over the surrounding countryside and a further shower room.

The vendors have converted the detached garage into a self-contained annexe with bedroom, shower room and kitchen to the ground floor and sitting room above having views over the paddock. Immediately to the rear of the house is a large paved terrace for alfresco entertaining. The remainder of the garden is largely laid to lawn enjoying an open aspect. There is a gravel driveway providing parking for several cars which continues past the annexe to a five bar gate leading into the paddock. In the corner, the vendor has erected a double metal barn garage.
