About this property

Grade II listed early 19th-century farmhouse, redecorated throughout, occupying a peaceful and private position on the edge of Copford Green, within landscaped gardens of about 1.73 acres.

It is the setting, however, that distinguishes it. The house occupies a quiet and secluded position on the southern edge of Copford Green, approached along a peaceful country lane and looking out over open countryside, while its gardens and grounds – extending to approximately 1.73 acres – are among the property's greatest pleasures, landscaped with evident care to create a real sense of space, seclusion and calm.
