This newly built barn is nestled in the quintessential English countryside, between Sudbourne and Iken on the Suffolk coast. Its high position ensures fabulous far-reaching views across farmland and towards the River Alde and Ore, where sitings of wetland birds and deer are common. The contemporary architecture is instantly striking and inside, the minimalist interior design emphasise the grandiosity of the space. The open-plan living area is situated on the upper floor, beneath stylish rafters. Large windows and a balcony let in streams of sunlight. In the summer, enjoy a BBQ on the outside terrace, and in winter, cosy up beside the wood-burning stove and enjoy the warm underfloor heating. For a fun family day out, we recommend visiting the nearby coastal town of Aldeburgh.
