Dating back to the late 15th or early 16th Century when the property was built as an original ‘open hall house’ Model Farm is justifiably listed Grade II as being of architectural or historical interest. In the 17th Century the central chimney and a floor were inserted facilitating two storey accommodation incorporating a ‘solar chamber’ (a room closer to the sun). Today, Model Farm provides a comfortable home of immense character with a large AGA farmhouse kitchen, a lovely cosy sitting room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Externally the grounds to Model Farm are an absolute joy with mature gardens extending to 1.23 acres and offering a wide range of outbuildings including a self-contained annex with large bed/sitting room, kitchen & bathroom, a former piggery which is currently used for storage but would make a super workshop, a polytunnel and extensive garaging. There is also a variety of trees surrounding the property and apple, plum and pear trees in the orchard.
Enclosed by a range of mature trees and hedging and with no adjacent neighbours, the setting of Model Farm provides the occupants with a wonderful degree of privacy and seclusion. The hamlet of High Town Green is situated on the periphery of the historic village of Rattlesden which provides everyday amenities including Community shop run by volunteers, primary school, village hall, two historic village inns, one a freehouse and The Brewers Arms, a Gastro Pub with an award winning reputation, a Baptist Church and the magnificent Church of St Nicholas. Rattlesden is situated mid-way between the towns of Bury St Edmunds and Stowmarket, the later offering a main line rail link to London’s Liverpool Street. (approx 1.5 hours)
