Description - Believed to date back to around 1592, York’s Tenement is a substantial and beautifully preserved Grade II listed farmhouse, set within an acres of enchanting gardens over looking neighbouring water meadow of the river Minsmear. Located in a popular East Suffolk village and within easy reach of the Suffolk Heritage Coast, the property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a quintessential country lifestyle.

Rich in history and character, the house extends to over 2,000 sq ft of accommodation arranged across three floors, showcasing a wealth of original features including exposed beams, timbers and impressive inglenook fireplaces.

Two further reception rooms provide flexibility, including a delightful garden room with doors opening onto the grounds, and a dual-aspect study, also featuring an inglenook fireplace. A useful pantry/utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

On the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, including a principal suite with en suite facilities, while another benefits from a walk-in dressing room. Two family bathrooms serve this level, both enjoying picturesque views across the surrounding gardens. The second floor provides a further bedroom along with additional storage space, ideal for guests or flexible use.

Outside, the property is approached via a gravel driveway offering ample parking and turning space. The formal gardens surrounding the house extend to around an acre, mainly laid to lawn and bordered by hedging, with mature trees creating a peaceful and private environment.
