DREAM HOME:
Suffolk Farmhouse
Complete with ornate Dutch-style gable ends, this statuesque and elegant Grade Ii-listed farmhouse was built in 1630. Nash Baker Architects respectfully restored the home while also making it viable for modern living by introducing an extension to house a contemporary kitchen-diner with sliding glass doors, and a sympathetic singlestorey extension, which sits alongside the Victorian scullery and 1930s wing.the 17th-century oak trusses, wallplates and ceiling joists throughout were reinstated and left exposed, giving the original features a new lease of life — they now hold their own alongside the contemporary additions.
