Situated between the Orwell and Stour estuaries, which were used in medieval times as an assembly point and safe anchoring for the naval fleet, stands one of only a few substantial residences on the peninsula offering a wealth of character, features and accommodation over three floors.

The main reception hall is believed to originally date back to the late 15th century with later Georgian additions including a detached stable block. The property offers versatile accommodation which has previously been used in part for residential pottery courses.

In addition, there is a detached stable block housing three stables, a large tack room (currently housing numerous pottery tables), cloakroom facilities and a large first-floor storage area/office.

There are numerous additional outbuildings housing varying equipment, brick pottery kilns and a detached garage. To one side of the property the land extends, backing onto farmland with open river views of the Orwell to the front and the Stour from the top rear windows.

Full outline planning permission for the construction of two-holiday cottages, with the other side and direct rear offering a private walled garden.

The remainder of the land some two acres stms, is located on the other side of the road opposite the property which is mostly grazing land, with a large pond and woodland area.
