We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A rare opportunity to acquire an attractive house in west Suffolk set in 43.20 acres.
Description FARMHOUSE Crowground Hall is a Potton style farmhouse extending to over 2,600 sqft constructed in 1987/88. The house is approached via a drive leading from the A1101.
The drive continues into a generous gravel sweep to the front of the house.
The front door opens into the main hallway, which leads through to the sitting room, benefiting from a fireplace fitted with a log burner and a canopy window that allows plenty of natural light throughout the day.
Access to the drawing room is from either the main hallway or the sitting room. It features a large fire place that forms the focal point of the room.
The smaller snug is currently used as a bedroom and is located across the hall from the drawing room adjacent to the downstairs cloakroom.
The kitchen features a 4 door AGA (unused) and a separate electric hob and oven, fitted cupboards and a view into the garden.
Leading from the kitchen is the utility room with fitted cupboards with a sink and the conservatory which also provides an internal link to the annexe.
The staircase leads to a balcony landing giving access to the four double bedrooms. The master bedroom is spacious with a large en-suite and two walk in wardrobes.
The three remaining bedrooms all have fitted wardrobes and share the use of the family bathroom. Accessed through a conservatory or a separate front door is the annexe.
The entrance leads into the open plan living room and kitchen. There is a doorway leading to the cellar. Upstairs is an additional bedroom.
Crowground Farmhouse is currently occupied under an Assured Periodic Tenancy but will be available with vacant possession upon completion.
GARDENS & GROUNDS To the rear of the house is an area laid to lawn surrounded by well-maintained shrubs enclosed by hedgerows.
Outside the kitchen is the more formal garden with a patio and raised flower beds. Beyond the garden are the paddocks which are divided by a series of hedgerows and fences.
There is a lake with a bridge onto the island and other environmental areas suitable for habitat creation. The balance of the land is currently used for paddocks or agricultural production.
Planning permission has been granted and work has commenced on a 2 bedroom bungalow on a plot of land within the grounds to the north of Crowground Hall.
For further details please contact the selling Agents.
OUTBUILDINGS Located to the south west of the house is a range of traditional timber outbuildings, including workshops constructed using a timber frame and concrete floor, along with further outbuildings, garages and a dog kennel.
A set of more modern outbuildings are located adjacent to the drive which include a large machinery store with internal purpose rooms, a double garage with electric roller shutter doors, and a vehicle workshop.
LAND The Land at Crowground Hall comprises approximately 37.97 acres of arable/pasture land.
The soils are described as being a sandy loam suitable for arable and vegetable cropping as well as pasture. The majority of land has been recently farmed in a rotation of maize and triticale.
The property benefits from a variety of environmental features, including areas of newly established woodland and a lake with a bridge leading to an island.
The land presents opportunities for habitat creation, equestrian use, and continued agricultural production.
Location Crowground Hall Farm is located in the centre of a triangle broadly equidistant from Bury St Edmunds, an historic and vibrant market town, Newmarket renowned for its horse racing heritage and the fenland Cathedral City of Ely dating back to 1083.
The city of Ely offers shopping, museums, art galleries, river Ouse marinas and further recreational facilities. Acreage: 43.2 Acres Directions IP28 8RN
