Idyllic pretty much sums it up when it comes to this charming family home in the historic town of Aldeburgh on the Suffolk coast. Here you’re just a five-minute walk from the beach and the town’s fabulous independent shops, meaning running errands here is easy (although you may come back from shopping with more than you intended). This five-bedroom house is all about colourful, generous open-plan living, with two living rooms and a dining area perfect for get-togethers – it's a hug of a home. In the summer months, you’ll want to spend most of your time outside. The south-facing garden is a suntrap, and features a barbecue with table and chairs for twelve – perfect for alfresco suppers after days on the beach.

About Aldeburgh
When the sun sets on Aldeburgh, the pastel-coloured houses that line the shore seem to glow and the pebbled beach takes on a rainbow hue. Here, the buildings come right up to the beach, so you just need to hop over the coastal wall to reach the sea.
