Description
Tucked away off a quiet lane leading to the Yacht Club’s boathouse, the house sits centrally within its plot and is fronted by a restored ancient elm hedge. A large driveway and generous attached double garage provide ample off-road parking for vehicles and boats.
A private and tranquil setting:
Surrounded by established gardens and mature trees, the property enjoys excellent privacy and a peaceful outlook. The rear garden features a natural grove of birch trees, expansive lawn, and deep planted borders. At the front, drought-tolerant and pollinator-friendly species, including lilac, cherry, bay, grasses, and garrya elliptica, offer year-round texture and colour. Direct access from the front lane leads to a riverside footpath, offering a unique connection to the protected wetland landscape of the River Alde, ideal for nature lovers and boating enthusiasts alike.
Well-planned interiors:
The property is defined by its practical layout, quality finishes, and generous proportions. A spacious entrance porch opens into a large reception hall that flows seamlessly into the main living areas. The kitchen/breakfast room is bright and functional, fitted with painted wood units and adjacent to a useful east-facing utility room. A separate vaulted studio or morning room—accessed independently from the front—adjoins a second utility room with garden access and internal entry to the garage. This area could potentially serve as additional accommodation, subject to planning. The south and east-facing dining room and the large dual-aspect sitting room—complete with fireplace and two sets of garden doors—offer wonderful spaces for entertaining and relaxing, opening directly onto outdoor terraces. A west-facing snug or study provides a perfect retreat for home working or quiet evenings. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.
Light-filled first floor:
A contemporary open-tread staircase leads to the upper floor. The principal bedroom enjoys sweeping views towards the sea and includes a spacious en-suite bathroom. Four further bedrooms are well-sized and versatile, accompanied by a family bathroom and a large walk-in airing cupboard. Roof access is provided by an insulated trap door and Nordic-style pull-down ladder.
Infrastructure and future potential:
The property benefits from a three-phase electricity supply, offering flexibility for future upgrades. It is served by a compliant private drainage system and sits ready for the integration of further efficiency measures or renewable systems if desired.
Prime location:
Alde Reach is quietly positioned on the western edge of Aldeburgh, adjacent to a protected SSSI and with direct access to the River Alde’s scenic footpaths. A small sandy beach, rich wildlife including Bitterns and Marsh Harriers, and a spectacular changing landscape make this a unique and privileged setting. Aldeburgh’s town centre, high street, and seafront are all within easy reach on foot. For sailing enthusiasts, the Aldeburgh Yacht Club offers nearby mooring and a range of facilities, while scenic walks along the riverbank lead to Slaughden and beyond.
Aldeburgh & surroundings:
Renowned for its arts heritage and seaside charm, Aldeburgh offers a vibrant high street with independent shops, galleries, cafés, and restaurants—including the famous Fish & Chip Shop and The Suffolk. The town also boasts tennis and golf clubs, a cinema, and excellent schools in the surrounding area, including Woodbridge School and Framlingham College. Nearby, Thorpeness, Snape Maltings, and the market towns of Saxmundham and Woodbridge provide further amenities, cultural highlights, and transport connections—including direct rail links to London from Saxmundham and Ipswich.
