3 Bed Cottage in Aldeburgh

About this property

This delightful house is close to both the beach and the high street in fashionable Aldeburgh. Blending charming period features with modern amenities, it has a big garden that’s perfect for children or a pet, making it a great getaway for families or groups of friends wanting to relax by the seaside.

This 17th century property has been renovated to a high standard to combine exposed beams and brickwork with high-quality modern furnishings. There’s plenty of space for everyone to chill out, perhaps in front of the flame-effect gas fire in the lounge - listening to music, playing games or enjoying a show on the Smart TV, or in the gorgeous conservatory, with its wicker-style furniture (a great place to enjoy a book). The large kitchen has everything you’ll need for putting together holiday meals, and there’s a separate dining room with a table and chairs for six. All three delightful bedrooms are on the first floor: two doubles (one with an en-suite shower room) and a single, plus a family bathroom with a shower over the bath. On a warm summer’s evening there’s nowhere nicer than the garden, which is fully enclosed and has a huge lawn.

Aldeburgh is set at the heart of the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The river Alde, popular with sailors, winds downstream to Orford and upstream to Snape Maltings (6 miles by car), where converted Victorian buildings house shops, galleries and places to eat, as well as an internationally renowned concert hall. In Aldeburgh’s wide high street, Georgian buildings are home to a variety of independent shops, galleries and restaurants, and it’s also worth visiting the 16th century Moot Hall. For a fascinating day out, the 1920s village of Thorpeness is just 2 miles away.
