Description
Westhorpe Hall is a historic, Grade II listed country house with a moated setting, situated in the quiet village of Westhorpe, Suffolk. The property has a rich history, dating back to the 16th century when it was built by Charles Brandon, the First Duke of Suffolk, for his wife Mary Tudor, sister of Henry VIII. The house has undergone several transformations, including a Georgian facelift, and features a stunning red brick façade with the Brandon coat of arms above the doorway. The property includes an impressive Tudor barn, outbuildings, and established gardens, with a moat that surrounds the property and is a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The house has a total floor area of 8,088 square feet and sits on 8.4 acres of land, with views across the surrounding Suffolk countryside. The property is set well back from the road, approached by a drive that leads to the barn and then divides to continue over the Tudor bridge and onto a large parking area. The gardens lie mainly to the front of the house, with an orchard and meadow available by separate negotiation.
