About this property
The property is an impressive and well-built Edwardian house dated from 1904. The house was commissioned by Alfred Pope, from the local brewing family who still own the Wrackleford Estate.
The house has retained some of the period features from its original construction with well-proportioned reception rooms, high ceilings and open fireplaces. The large entrance hall has the original Edwardian floor tiles and accesses the principal reception rooms, large conservatory, kitchen and downstairs WC.<br />
