This penthouse apartment just steps from the Ipswich Waterfront and Neptune Marina is the definition of living the high life. Decked out in chic contemporary furnishings, the open-plan living area is a treat for socialising and soaking up the incredible floor-to-ceiling views over the marina and the River Orwell. While the plump sectional sofa puts you in a prime position to feast on the wide-sweeping vistas, we suggest stepping out on the wraparound balcony for a real wow-worthy treat. Whether you’re starting mornings here with an alfresco breakfast or enjoying a glass of wine at sunset, you’ll never tire of taking in the beauty of the home’s living backdrop. Both bedrooms, too, offer stunning views over the city and its marina and beckon a peaceful night’s sleep under their luxurious Egyptian cotton sheets. With a plethora of fabulous extras – like the welcome hamper packed with locally produced pastries and treats, as well as the environmentally-friendly toiletries – you’ll be on cloud nine in this dazzling penthouse pad. Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty of restaurants, bars and shops to explore along the waterfront (a one-minute walk away), while the Ipswich Museum is fifteen minutes away on foot. Alternatively, hop in your car for a day of sun and sand with Felixstowe Beach a twenty-minute drive away.

About Hadleigh

This ancient market town is nestled in Constable Country – a beautiful area of Suffolk that inspired the 18th-century artist’s most famous works. Hadleigh itself is packed full of character, with historic buildings and independent shops aplenty. Sandwiched between Sudbury and Ipswich, it may not be as well-known as its more prominent neighbours, but with its mixed architecture and picturesque valley setting, this quieter area still has lots to offer....
