This Grade II listed former farmhouse, nestled on 1.4 acres of tranquil land, presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors. Located on the outskirts of the well-equipped village of Thurston, Stockhold Green Farmhouse boasts traditional timber-frame construction and charming thatched roofing, highlighting its early 16th-century origins. Having been cherished by the same family since shortly after World War II, it now awaits a new owner ready to infuse modernity into its expansive 2,400 sq ft living space while preserving its historical character.
The property features numerous original elements such as exposed timber frames and inglenook fireplaces, arranged over two levels. The ground floor comprises an entrance hall leading into a spacious sitting room with a study area and adjacent snug, both accented by inviting fireplaces. A generously sized kitchen/breakfast room provides ample storage and work surfaces along with culinary appliances like a gas Aga.
Upstairs, four sizeable bedrooms with built-in wardrobes offer picturesque views of the grounds. There’s also both a family bathroom and a separate shower room for convenience.
Outdoors, the property is approached via a gravel driveway that accommodates several vehicles. The large barn attached to the house offers potential for conversion into additional living space or an annex (subject to planning approvals). With further outbuildings and stables present, this property is perfect for those interested in rural living or agricultural pursuits.
The extensive gardens are adorned with mature trees and hedges, creating a secluded environment for relaxation or outdoor activities. Conveniently located just under a mile from Thurston's amenities—such as shops, schools, and transport links—and within reach of Bury St Edmunds and Cambridge, this property combines charm with potential for significant enhancement.
