For Sale5 Bedroom House in Clopton, Woodbridge, Suffolk, IP13 6QN£600,000

Exciting development project, former Victorian schoolhouse on about 4.95 acres of grounds. Wychwood is an attractive red brick, Victorian house, converted from a school house in the 1960s and now requiring some modernisation, offering the new owners an incredible opportunity to fashion a superb family home. Internally, the accommodation flows remarkably well, comprising well-proportioned rooms with delightful period features including arched windows and picture rails. The front door opens into the reception hall, with doors off to the sitting room and cloakroom, and stairs up to the double aspect guest bedroom. At the heart of the house is the spacious, double aspect sitting room, with a wood-burning stove and French windows out to the west-facing terrace. The sitting room leads into a south facing dining room and on into a study. Off the dining room is a kitchen with walk in pantry and back door leading into a useful workshop. There is a further door leading from the dining room, the old teachers' entrance, that opens on to a lawn and woodland. Upstairs there are four bedrooms, two of which are the original rooms for the school and two bathrooms. The building occupies a wonderful position within almost five acres of land. To the immediate rear of the property is a generous terrace, ideal for al fresco dining. There is a further outbuilding currently used as a wood store. The grounds consist of verdant lawns, a wild flower meadow and well established woodland. There is a mixed fruit orchard and a swimming pool that requires renovation. Wychwood offers ample parking, a double garage and the former village hall, a tin tabernacle, now requiring considerable renovation. View payable Stamp Duty for this property
