Market Place, Hadleigh, IP7

Toppesfield Hall is a remarkable and beautifully presented period property, offering off-road parking, a cart lodge, a garage, and a spacious southwest-facing garden.

Dating back to the 17th century with later Victorian additions, Toppesfield Hall is Grade II listed for its architectural and historical significance. The property retains numerous charming period features, such as picture rails, sash windows, wall panelling, deep skirting boards, and original coving.

As expected from a house of this era, the rooms are generously proportioned, filled with natural light, and feature high ceilings throughout.

The front door opens into a large entrance hall with lovely panelling, exposed wooden floors, and a wood-burning stove. From here, doors lead to the elegant drawing room, a double-aspect dining room, and through to the stunning kitchen/breakfast room.

The kitchen/breakfast room offers plenty of storage, a breakfast bar, and a lovely bay window that overlooks the garden, allowing the space to be flooded with natural light. Off the kitchen, a practical utility room provides additional storage and access to the garden.

Stairs from the entrance hall lead to the first and second floors. The first floor features a spacious landing that serves four well-sized, light-filled bedrooms, three of which have en-suite bathrooms. The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom and a balcony that overlooks the garden.

The second floor, with its striking beams, includes two additional large bedrooms and a family bathroom.
