5 bedroom house

General information Field View is an impressive, detached, family house that originated as a farmhouse and was built in 1957. As a farm, the property originally owned all the land around it and takes its name, Field View, from the stunning far reaching views which stretch towards The Ramsholt Arms on the banks of the River Deben. We understand the property was extended in 2007 and now provides a pleasing, free flowing layout which is ideal for entertaining and family living.
