Sibton Park

Sibton Hall

Sibton Hall is a Grade II* listed country house in Sibton, Suffolk, England. It dates from 1827 and is built of brick with a stucco finish.[1] It was built for Robert Sayer, once Sheriff of Suffolk,[2] to a design by the architect Decimus Burton and extended by Kim Wilkie and Argus Gathorne-Hardy.[3][4] Wilkie has been continuously involved with the project since 1996.[5]

The house and estate, known as Sibton Park, was the residence of John William Brooke (1824-1881), John Kendall Brooke (1856-1939), John Acton Brooke (1883-1982) and Edward Acton Brooke (1918-2006).

Sibton Park is currently owned by Jon Hunt, founder of Foxtons estate agents, who markets it for letting as Wilderness Reserve.[2]
