Location:
The village of Butley lies close to the Suffolk Heritage Coast between the renowned seaside town of Aldeburgh and bustling market town Woodbridge on the river Deben standing within the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This peaceful location is ideal for enjoying all the amenities of the beautiful Suffolk countryside and coastline. The Oyster Inn, a lovely family-run pub, is within a minutes’ walk to the house.
Nearby Orford benefits from a well-stocked village shop with sub-post office, The Pump Street Bakery, Crown & Castle hotel, two pubs (The King's Head & The Jolly Sailor) and home to a 12th Century castle. Orford still retains its primary school, regular market and primary school. Butley lies a short distance from the river Alde where there are active sailing clubs at Orford and Aldeburgh.
Accessed off Mill Lane, a gated entrance opens up to a gravel parking area in front of the house.
A large ceiling height glazed door provides the main entrance into a generous hall area which is open-plan to the kitchen, dining area and living room space. This capacious area, with its exposed wall and ceiling timbers, lends itself brilliantly as a hub for a large group. The L-shape kitchen itself, is very well appointed with a large range of Shaker tyle base units, fitted with a full range of appliances.
At the end of the large open-plan room a door leads through to second reception room, known as The Granary (the southern wing of the barn), which includes a staircase providing access to a bedroom.
Off the hall area there is also a utility room with washer/dryer, butlers sink and walk in larder. Wide bi-fold doors (opposite the entrance) open to a large paved seating terrace and secluded garden.
The barn has seven bedrooms suites in total, two of which are on the ground floor. Each bedroom is well proportioned with wooden floors, exposed timbers with views over front and rear gardens. The en-suite bathrooms all have highly quality fittings with showers to the ground floor and baths to the first-floor bedrooms.
Attached to the barn is a yoga/games room/spa complex comprising a large principal room with vaulted ceiling and deep windows overlooking the garden, a laundry store room and a store/plant room. A hallway leads to a spa room with fitted storage, and separate cloakroom.Through to a sauna room with twin showers, and sunken hot tub.
Adjacent from the barn entrance, off the graveled parking area, there is an outbuilding barn (of 356 sq. ft) currently used as a storage area.
