Max Turner, leader of the new homes team at Savills Ipswich, says there’s been a surge in sales since the housing market reopened.
“Those with the financial security to be able to move are acting on their changing priorities, a requirement for more space and, in many cases, a reassessment of their work-life balance – this has led to huge demand for properties in rural areas as buyers look for a change in lifestyle,” he said.
“Easton is always a popular village and the barn conversions at Home Farm are proving no exception.
“The properties have been finished to the highest quality, providing the perfect blend of character, substance and style.
