Deer View Lodge, Hibbs Green, Bury St Edmunds, IP29 4QG

Built to an individual design around fifteen years ago and completed under the careful project management of the present owner, Deer View Lodge offers approximately 4,300 sq ft of beautifully arranged accommodation in a superb semi-rural setting on the edge of Lawshall.

Enjoying exceptional privacy, thoughtfully landscaped gardens and uninterrupted countryside views, the property combines contemporary architecture with excellent versatility, making it ideal for modern family living and multigenerational arrangements with scope for an independent annexe, if desired.

The interior is wonderfully light, with generously proportioned rooms and an effortless flow suited to both everyday living and entertaining.

A spacious reception hall leads into the striking dual-aspect sitting room, where oak flooring.

A magnificent double-height galleried window frames far-reaching views and French doors open onto the rear terrace.

The triple-aspect kitchen, dining and family room forms the sociable heart of the home, fitted with a bespoke kitchen, large island, integrated appliances and a walk-in pantry.

A wood burner adds comfort, while French doors open to two generous decked terraces, creating a seamless connection with the gardens.

A cosy snug offers further flexible living space with access to the side garden.

Designed with adaptability in mind, the west wing provides two additional reception rooms or bedrooms, together with a utility room and cloakroom.

With its own services and access points, this area is well suited to independent accommodation for extended family, guests or rental/holiday-let purposes to generate income.

The layout allows the house to function as a three-bedroom and a two-bedroom unit, each with separate meters, independent heating/water systems, kitchen and bathroom facilities along with individual entrances, outside spaces and parking.

Accommodation Designed with long-term efficiency and sustainability in mind, the property incorporates a comprehensive range of modern systems that enhance energy performance with wall, floor and roof insulation, air quality and overall running efficiency, while ensuring excellent digital connectivity throughout.

Two staircases rise to the first floor, where a galleried sitting area overlooks the main reception room and enjoys the impressive views through the feature window.

All four bedrooms are well proportioned and benefit from en suite bath or shower rooms.

The principal suite is particularly notable, featuring a vaulted ceiling, walk-in wardrobe, spacious en suite and a private balcony enjoying panoramic views.

Outside The property is approached via an in-and-out carriage-style driveway providing ample parking and turning space, together with access to a detached garage and workshop with mezzanine storage and own electricity supply.

The gardens are a particular feature, originally professionally designed to offer an enclosed, intimate feel while enhancing the rural backdrop.

Beautifully planted pockets include areas inspired by the White Garden at Sissinghurst and the Beth Chatto Dry Garden, complemented by a circular lawn centred around a Silver Birch and a wild garden encouraging biodiversity.

Two large decked terraces are linked by a small bridge and numerous sun-filled seating areas have been positioned to enjoy different aspects throughout the day.

A hexagonal summer house provides a peaceful retreat with views back towards the main house. Rear boundaries are securely fenced, ideal for pets.
