House, Creeting St. Mary, Ipswich, Suffolk

A striking, contemporary home, maintained to a very high standard, with an abundance of eco features in an ideal village setting.

Halcyon House was built by the current owners to an exceptionally high bespoke standard and is nestled along a quiet lane in a semi-rural village setting. The property offers beautifully proportioned, high-specification accommodation arranged over three floors, with striking glass elevations that floods the interior with natural light.

The ground floor centres around an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area, featuring an impressive range of integrated appliances. These include two-drawer dishwasher and fridge units, a double oven, integrated microwave, steam oven, fridge/freezer, a Domino induction hob, with an additional gas ring, a Teppanyaki hob, hot tap, and a sink waste disposal unit. Large aluminium bi-fold doors open seamlessly onto the garden. A separate vaulted family room with a gas fire provides a cosy space to relax, while a utility room, cloakroom, and study complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal suite is a standout feature, with a vaulted ceiling, fully fitted dressing room, and a luxurious en suite with twin sinks. A large apex window offers lovely views over the garden. Two further bedrooms on this floor share a stylish Jack and Jill bathroom. The top floor provides two additional double bedrooms and a well-appointed shower room.

The home is equipped with a central built-in vacuum system and air conditioning to the main living areas and principal bedroom. Sustainability has been carefully considered, with features including a mechanical ventilation and heat recovery system, 14 solar panels, a rainwater harvesting system with a 5,000-litre underground tank, and a water softener - creating an energy-efficient, low-carbon home. Fibre broadband is also installed, making it ideal for modern home working.
