About this property
Listed in a compendium of Suffolk’s 100 best buildings, Smokey House is one of Suffolk’s most distinctive residences, famously modelled by Lilliput Lane and admired for its striking revival-style architecture and unmistakable character. Following an exemplary two-and-a-half-year refurbishment and extension, the house has been sensitively modernised to a high standard, carefully preserving its historic features and unique charm, while reflecting its origins as a smokehouse and later a gamekeeper’s cottage on the Sudbourne Estate. Inside, the property offers five well-proportioned bedrooms and four bathrooms, alongside a thoughtfully designed layout well-suited to modern living.
