A three-bedroom detached house close to Market Hill in Woodbridge is on the market at a guide price of £725,000.
Fairfield House, which is on Queens Head Lane in the market town, is Grade II listed and offers a tranquil ‘secret garden’.
The property is believed to have been built in the late 18th century and retains much of the period charm, though it has been modernised over the years.
Fairfield House is entered via a panelled wooden door set within a covered Doric porch.
A door leads to the large sitting room, which was extended in the 1980s and is nearly seven metres long. A bay-style window offers views towards Fen Meadow. There’s also a sash window and French doors to the courtyard and garden. The focal point of the sitting room is the open fireplace, which has a carved wooden surround and raised tiled hearth.
