This historic property holds notable significance in British art history, having been immortalized by John Constable in his painting 'The Stour Valley from Higham'. Displaying classic architectural features from the 1600s, the timber-framed and rendered exterior includes a red brick stack, a steeply pitched swept roof with plain tiles, and a single-storey front projection under a pent roof containing a traditional shop window from its time as the village post office. 

Inside, the property showcases a wealth of original features, including extensive exposed timber beams and original uneven flooring that reflect its heritage. The ground floor comprises a sitting room with a wood-burning stove integrated into the original fireplace, a formal dining room, a kitchen, a separate post office room used as a family space or study, and a cloakroom with utility space. 

The first floor accommodates three bedrooms, including a master bedroom with direct access to an adjacent bedroom, all served by a centrally located family bathroom. 

Self-contained ground floor accommodation is provided by a separate annexe, featuring a spacious fourth bedroom with an en-suite shower room and French doors opening to the garden. 

Externally, the property benefits from an enclosed rear garden with a paved terrace, lawn areas, and a private gate at the boundary providing the future owner exclusive access to privately owned parkland, alongside off-road parking for up to three vehicles.
