Castle Road, Offton, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP8

Offton Tithe is a beautifully converted barn of red brick, timber framing and flint detailing, situated in an elevated tranquil setting overlooking undulating Suffolk countryside.

Internally there are extraordinary features such as full-height windows, vaulted ceiling and exposed beams allowing the room to be flooded with natural light, and of particular note the vendor has carefully aligned two vast feature windows (one being a sliding door) in line with the two front entrances to draw your attention immediately to the spectacular vistas of the setting, immediately upon entering this fine home.

There are two possible entrance halls, one with a useful boot cupboard before opening into the stunning kitchen/breakfast room with feature island, utility room, pantry, and access to the snug and a bathroom. The other is currently dedicated as a dining area before opening out to the impressive 43ft by 28ft family room with central standing log burner and access back through to the kitchen. There is also the study which has access onto the family bathroom and could therefore be a fifth bedroom. The entire ground floor is designed to give the feeling of open plan entertaining, whilst also allowing for formal and informal living. All the bedrooms are good sized doubles with big built-in wardrobes and en suite.
