The list price of £2,225,000 is high for the area and the property must be seen as a very niche asset, this being stated in the description. The lack of precise square footage data for the main house makes a definitive price-per-square-foot comparison difficult, impacting the assessment. While nearby properties offer some price benchmarks, the uniqueness of this large farmhouse with extensive land and outbuildings justifies some level of premium. However, this premium pushes the price into a less competitive bracket in relation to more comparable housing in the region.

The provided photographs showcase a property that appears to be well-maintained, both internally and externally. The interior shows character features that seem to be in good condition. While the age of the property suggests potential maintenance requirements, the visuals indicate that it’s not in significant need of repair or renovation.

The property is situated in Harkstead, a village in Suffolk, offering a tranquil rural setting. Proximity to the River Stour is attractive. While slightly removed from major urban centers, the relatively close distance to Ipswich provides access to more amenities and transportation links. The presence of several well-regarded schools within a reasonable distance further enhances its appeal to families.

The property boasts extensive grounds, including extensive equestrian facilities, as explicitly noted in the description. The ample land size significantly contributes to the property’s overall appeal and value.
