The property

Town Farm is a remarkable 450-year-old, Grade II listed farmhouse set within the peaceful Suffolk village of Thorndon, offering a richly characterful retreat for families and friends who appreciate history, space and atmosphere.

From the moment you arrive, this enchanting home reveals layers of heritage, where original features sit beautifully alongside thoughtful modern touches, creating a setting made for special gatherings and unhurried time together.

Enter and you are greeted by a farmhouse-style kitchen/diner that feels like the heart of the home, complete with a woodburning stove and plenty of room for cooking, chatting and lingering over meals.

A light-filled sunroom lounge provides a more laid-back space for summer evenings, while elsewhere on the ground floor you will find a utility room with WC, a formal dining room with an impressive inglenook fireplace and woodburner, and a second lounge with its own inglenook, perfect for curling up with a book or a favourite film.

For a little friendly competition, the games room offers table football and ping pong, ensuring there is something for everyone to enjoy.

Upstairs, the character continues with gently sloping floors, exposed beams and a wonderfully timeless feel.

There are three inviting double bedrooms, along with a generous master bedroom featuring a decorative brick fireplace that adds a sense of quiet grandeur.

A well-appointed family bathroom, complete with a separate bath and shower, serves the bedrooms with ease.

Outside, the enclosed garden is a true highlight, designed for both relaxation and fun.

Fire up the outdoor woodburning pizza oven, gather around the firepit as evening falls, or enjoy long meals outdoors while children and dogs play safely nearby.

There is ample on-site parking, making arrivals and departures refreshingly easy.

Town Farm offers something special in every season, from summer nights under the stars with films projected in the sun room, to winter days spent warming by the glow of the woodburners.
