Historic timber frame farmhouse requiring elements of updating, pleasantly situated in grounds of 12 acres with a wide range of barns and outbuildings offering scope for potential development.

Listed Grade II as being of architectural or historical interest, Hanningfield Farmhouse is a fine timber frame farmhouse with origins estimated to date back to the 16th Century. Following the trends in architectural styling, the farmhouse was re-fronted with an attractive gault brick façade in the late 18th Century incorporating sash windows and a handsome plain column Tuscan portico.

Under the same ownership for recent generations, the house itself provides substantial family accommodation, the rear wing of which is currently utilised as a self-contained cottage. Indicative of properties which have not changed hands, various aspects might be considered ‘slightly dated’ by today’s standards, with fabulous potential for refurbishment to reveal the historic fabric of the house and provide a home of immense charm and character.

Outside
Standing well back from the the road in a quiet and peaceful setting, the grounds to Hanningfield Farm extend to approximately twelve acres including formal gardens and meadows together with areas of mature trees. The house is approached over a long driveway past a large pond and spurs off to a dual access carriage drive which sweeps to the front of the house. The main drive continues to the farm buildings, however, there is a furher access available to the barns via a gateway and track leading back to Hanningfield Green

Located to the south and east of the farmhouse and with an historic footprint shown on early maps of the village, the former farm buildings include a magnificent, hipped roof clunch barn with two prominent gables facing east. The remaining buildings are of mixed construction and include generous modern barns, stables and former single storey poultry unit

*AGENTS NOTE - Whilst no formal planning applications have been submitted, a ‘Planning Overview’ has been prepared by Carter Jonas and is available from the agents on request.

Location
Hanningfields Farm occupies a pleasant position on the periphery of the village centre, Lawshall has a thriving community where local amenities include primary school, village hall, historic village inn, Evangelical Free Church and the magnificent 13th Century parish Church of All Saints. The village is situated approximately six miles south of Bury St Edmunds which provides a comprehensive range of schooling, shopping, recreational and cultural facilities

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
You get more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
Brokers can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
Are typically easier to get in contact with, less bureaucratic.

However with your bank maybe able to:

Build off existing relationship (discounts if you have a checking/saving account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Perhaps more trustworthy, more accountable than a smaller shop
Lower interest rates in some cases
Ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
