A seven-bedroom period home in Melton, near Woodbridge, is for sale at a guide price of £2.2 million.
Foxburrow House is set in about four acres of land and offers formal gardens, a large pond and a range of outbuildings.
Selling agents Clarke & Simpson said: “Believed to date originally from the late 16th century, the property has a Georgian façade and exhibits classic Georgian architectural features with large sash windows that provide plenty of light to all the rooms, together with good views of the surrounding gardens and grounds.”
On the ground floor of the property, there’s an entrance hall with an understairs storage cupboard.
A door from the hall leads to the dual-aspect drawing room, which features an open fireplace with carved stone surround.
A partly glazed door leads through to the stunning 27ft garden room, which was added to the property five years ago. This room features bifold doors and French doors to the terrace and gardens, as well as limestone flooring with underfloor heating.
A door from the garden room leads to the breakfast room, which overlooks the terrace and benefits from limestone flooring and an open fireplace with polished stone surround and a wood-burning stove.
