DESCRIPTION
Little Hill Farm is a Grade II Listed, partly thatched house with immense character and charm, which has been extensively refurbished by the current owners. The house has three bedrooms on the first floor, but benefits from an Annexe which is located to the west of the main house which currently has one bedroom, sitting room/kitchen and shower room. The house itself has many original features and the current owners have added handmade solid oak doors and a stunning bespoke solid oak kitchen, as well as a luxury bathroom. The property benefits from oil fired central heating to radiators and some underfloor heating. The gardens and paddocks extend to approximately three acres and there is a modern stable block, as well as a timber barn and other outbuildings. The views over the surrounding unspoilt countryside are outstanding.
LOCATION
The popular market town of Halesworth, approximately three miles to the south, is centred around a pedestrian precinct with a wide variety of shops which cater for virtually every day needs. Halesworth has a primary and middle school, library, arts centre, doctors surgery and cottage hospital which make it very self contained. The town is also well served with transport communications having a railway station which offers a service via Ipswich to London Liverpool Street.

After passing through the village of Wissett, just before Rumburgh, turn left and the property will be found on the right hand side before the turning to Chediston Green.
