An elegant and beautifully presented town house ideally located in this sought after of coastal towns.

Aldeburgh is an extremely popular seaside town, renowned for its connections with the composer Benjamin Britten, its sailing on the Rivers Alde and Ore and its heathland golf course.

The town is close to open countryside and nature reserves which are connected through a vast network of public footpaths.

Situated within the Suffolk Heritage Coast, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Aldeburgh is approximately two hours drive from London and the nearest train station is seven miles away at Saxmundham which, with a change at Ipswich, connects to London Liverpool Street.

Description - Occupying a highly desirable position within easy walking distance of both the High Street and the seafront, this elegant bay-fronted Victorian townhouse is a beautifully presented period home combining timeless character with stylish modern living.

Constructed of attractive red brick beneath traditional slate-covered roofs with decorative ridge tiles, the property retains an abundance of original features including sash windows, fireplaces, boarded ceilings, picture rails and panelled staircase and doors, all of which contribute to its exceptional charm.

The welcoming entrance hall immediately sets the tone, with its graceful shallow staircase rising to the first floor, original panelling to the understairs area incorporating useful storage, (plans have been drawn to incorporate a WC) and a glazed door opening directly onto the delightful west-facing garden.

To the front, the elegant sitting room enjoys a large bay window overlooking Hartington Road and centres around an attractive fireplace with wood-burning stove, complemented by fitted cabinetry and shelving to either side, together with an original picture rail and decorative ceiling rose.

A second reception room, currently arranged as a study, is equally impressive, featuring a splendid cast iron fireplace with decorative tiled inserts, polished stone surround, bespoke fitted shelving and cabinetry, and a large sash window providing excellent natural light.

To the rear, the bespoke kitchen/breakfast room has been thoughtfully designed with an extensive range of hand-painted cabinets, generous work surfaces, a traditional double Butler sink, open shelving and integrated appliances including a concealed washing machine and dishwasher.

A gas and electric range cooker with stainless steel splashback and cooker hood forms the focal point, while a glazed door opens directly onto an east-facing courtyard access via a hand gate to Champion Road.

The first-floor galleried landing leads to three beautifully proportioned bedrooms.

The principal bedroom is an elegant retreat, enjoying a large bay window, attractive cast iron fireplace, original built-in wardrobe with panelled door, picture rail, and a stylish en-suite bathroom featuring tongue and groove panelling, a bath, wall-mounted basin and WC.

The second bedroom mirrors the character of the principal room, with its own decorative cast iron fireplace, original wardrobe and sash window to the side elevation.

The third bedroom is full of period charm, with tongue and groove wall panelling, an original decorative panelled ceiling and built-in storage cupboard, whilst a contemporary shower room with hand basin and WC completes the first-floor accommodation.

Outside, the property enjoys the benefit of two distinct outdoor spaces.

The enclosed west-facing rear garden provides a peaceful and private setting with lawn, patio, mature shrubs and attractive willow fencing, creating the perfect environment for entertaining or relaxing in the afternoon and evening sun.

An additional east-facing courtyard offers a practical space off the kitchen.

Beautifully maintained throughout, this outstanding Victorian home successfully blends elegant period architecture with modern comforts, creating a wonderfully characterful residence in one of the town's most sought-after locations.
