Lamb House is a substantial and attractive Grade II listed village house, believed to date from the 16th century or earlier, occupying generous established gardens in the heart of Sible Hedingham.
Extensively renovated in recent years, the property successfully combines its considerable period character with a stylish contemporary finish, while retaining a wealth of exposed beams, period detailing and attractive fireplaces.
The ground floor provides an excellent range of living space. At the heart of the house is a superb kitchen/breakfast room with a large central island and extensive fitted cabinetry, opening into the adjoining dining area to create a particularly sociable everyday living space.
There are two further generous reception rooms, including an impressive sitting room with exposed timbers, period detailing and doors opening onto the garden terrace. A separate study provides useful home-working space and is complemented by a laundry room, cloakroom and additional storage.
The first floor provides five bedrooms and three bathrooms. The principal bedroom is a generous room with en-suite facilities and staircase rising to a useful second-floor dressing room with fitted hanging space. The remaining bedrooms are well-proportioned and offer character features.
The gardens are a particular feature of the property, with areas of lawn, mature trees, established planting and attractive pathways creating a private and interesting setting. A generous paved terrace immediately adjoining the house provides an excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining.
Vehicular access leads to a substantial gravelled parking area with space for several vehicles.
Within the grounds is a detached former stable building, currently divided into three former stables and a tack room. The building provides excellent storage and offers clear potential for conversion into a home office, studio, gym or similar ancillary space, subject to the necessary consents.
Historic England records Lamb House as dating from the 16th century or earlier and notes that it was formerly known as Swaynes. Local conservation records also identify the property as the former Lamb Public House, adding an interesting historical connection to the present-day name.
