Location

Ipswich, the county town of Suffolk, offers a wide selection of independent and high street shops, numerous restaurants-including The Mariners, set aboard a 19th century Belgian Gunboat-and a variety of theatres, galleries, and museums. The mainline station provides direct trains to London Liverpool street in as little as 68 minutes.

The Suffolk coast features charming seaside towns and villages. Aldeburgh (23.7 miles), associated with Benjamin Britten, is known for its pebble beach and fish and chips. Nearby Thorpeness has a boating lake and country club while Orford (19.3 miles) boasts a 12th-century castle and the award-winning pump street bakery.

Sporting facilities are excellent, with gyms, pools, rugby clubs, tennis, golf, and sailing on the Rivers Orwell and Deben. Education is strong across both state and private sectors, with Ipswich School and Northgate High School a short walk from the house.
