There is plenty of history to be found in this glorious period home in Orford, which dates back to the 16th century. You’ll find yourself admiring the antique details, such as the exposed beams, inglenook fireplace, plaster pargeting and traditional wooden staircase, all of which add to the unique, cosy ambience. Groups of friends or family will have plenty of room to spread out in the generous living areas, and kids will love the snug, giving them their own space to chill out and play.

The garden has a barbecue and seating area, where you can dine alfresco on warm summer evenings, or start your day sipping your coffee while you enjoy the gorgeous views across the marshes.
