Strawberry Hall – An Elegant Georgian Residence with Extensive Grounds

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a truly remarkable property, Strawberry Hall is a distinguished Grade II Listed Georgian farmhouse, rich in history and character and believed to date back to circa 1740. Tucked away in a peaceful, private setting on the edge of the desirable village of Tydd St Mary, the home is set within beautifully landscaped formal gardens of approximately 2 acres, with the total plot extending to around 3 acres (subject to measured survey) – offering excellent potential for paddocks or equestrian use.

Lovingly maintained and presented to an exceptional standard, the property showcases a wealth of elegant period features and offers generous, adaptable living space arranged over three principal floors. There is also outstanding scope to further develop the extensive basement and attic areas.

Constructed in traditional clay brick beneath a slate roof, Strawberry Hall impresses with its striking Georgian façade, tall sash windows, ornate cornicing, and grand ceiling heights throughout – a rare opportunity to own a piece of Georgian heritage in a sought-after rural location.
