Stradbroke Town Farm is an attractive period house being Grade II Listed of Special Architectural and Historical Interest and is believed to date back to the 15th century with two twenty-first century extensions.

The property is built of both a timber frame and brick under a reed thatch and long straw ridge, which has recently been renewed. There is a pantile roof on the modern extension, and the property offers a wealth of characterful features.

The house has been extended over the years and in more recent years a substantial vaulted ceiling kitchen/ breakfast room and rear garden room has been added and now offers wonderful spaces overlooking the gardens, making it a most comfortable and appealing family home.

The versatile and spacious accommodation is laid out over three floors with the ground floor comprising the impressive triple aspect kitchen/dining room, which affords a rangemaster induction cooker, bespoke base and wall mounted units with quartz worktops and a breakfast bar with further storage beneath.

There is also an integrated dishwasher and space for a large free-standing American style refrigerator/freezer. French doors also lead out to a south facing terrace, perfect for alfresco dining.

Beyond the kitchen lies the drawing room and sitting room, both very well proportioned rooms with good ceiling heights, exposed beams and impressive inglenook fireplaces. The sitting room fireplace houses a large woodturner. These rooms offer fine views over both the front and rear gardens.

A connecting hallway with sky lights leads to the pantry, utility, shower room and boot room. As well as the double aspect garden room, which is light and airy with French doors out onto the terrace and gardens.

Stairs lead up to the first floor where there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms. A staircase from the landing leads up to a second floor, which has a further double bedroom with a fabulous timber framed vaulted ceiling. All bedrooms benefit from fantastic views over the surrounding countryside.

The house is centrally heated with an air-source heat pump located in a purpose-built boiler house.

Outside
Stradbroke Town Farm is approached via its own private drive, which leads through the delightful landscaped gardens and grounds which are all within about six acres. To the front of the building is a verdant formal lawn with shrub and herbaceous borders, and array of mature trees and an idyllic duck pond.

To the rear are lawns with a substantial 16th century moat, mature trees, a rose arbour and two sunlit patios with wonderful scenic views of the surrounding countryside. The orchard has an array of fruit trees including several varieties of plum, pear and apple, medlar, mulberry and quince. The vegetable garden includes raised beds and a fruit cage.

Within the grounds there are various outbuildings. Located near the house there is a delightful two bay cart lodge and office with glazed French doors. Subject to the necessary planning consents this could also be converted to an annex with an addition of a shower room. There is a large wood store which also houses garden equipment, a chicken run, with an adjoining vine-covered terrace.

There is also a large tool shed and elegant wood-built greenhouse. Just over two acres comprise the landscaped gardens and grounds. A further four acres are fields currently grazed by the local farmer but would be suitable for horses.
