Description Grade II listed of architectural and or historical interest, Sandpit Farm is believed to date back to the late C17. The house was remodelled in the mid C18 with a classic red brick façade. The main construction is of timber frame with brick under peg tiled roofs. The house displays numerous features throughout including some exposed timbers, stone floors, open fireplaces and offers a great deal of character throughout. The house is adorned by roses and other attractive climbing plants with delightful formal gardens to the front which overlook the beautiful meadows around the house. Sandpit farm is situated off a quiet tree lined road and is approached via a long gravel drive which passes the impressive timber framed outbuildings and barns and sweeps round to the main parking area which fronts the house. The stunning grounds surround the house with meadows to the north, east and south of the house with orchard and woodland. There is a delightful range of traditional outbuildings which comprise a superb timber framed Suffolk barn, cart lodges and stables. There are further outbuildings which are used for storage, garage and a home office. There is also a hard tennis court with large Dutch barn. In addition there is a large annexe of brick and timber construction providing further family accommodation. This is open plan with a large living room/bedroom and wet room. Note The house owns the drive to the neighbouring property which also allows access to a field where there is a cricket bat willow plantation. The house is registered for a single farm payment and benefits from a reduced stamp duty levy under the mixed use classification clause. Guest annexe
