Firtree Cottage offers welcoming and versatile

accommodation with a strong sense of warmth and  

history. The spacious living room spans the full width of the

cottage, featuring exposed timber beams,

wooden windows, and two impressive fireplaces, both with wood-burning stoves creating a charming focal point and perfect for cosy evenings by the fire.

About Jennie Jones Estate Agents, Saxmundham & Suffolk Heritage Coast

26 High Street, Saxmundham, IP17 1AB
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0

Established in the early 1990s by Jennie Jones herself, Jennie Jones Estate Agents has grown to become one of the leading independent estate agencies on Suffolk's Heritage Coast. With offices in Saxmundham, Southwold, and Aldeburgh, we are proud to serve this beautiful region, encompassing the charming coastal towns, inland villages, and historic market communities.

Our Saxmundham branch, located at 26 High Street, is staffed by a dedicated and knowledgeable team committed to providing the highest standards of personal and professional service. We specialise in marketing a diverse range of properties from large country houses to one-bedroom apartments, and even beach huts tailoring our approach to meet the unique needs of each client.

In May 2025, we welcomed Aarran Ellis as the new owner. Aarran brings over two decades of experience in estate agency and property technology, including leadership roles at Zoopla, Jupix, and The Lettings Hub. He originally joined Jennie Jones in 2003, successfully opening and managing the Saxmundham branch. His return marks a new chapter in our commitment to innovation and exceptional customer service.

Our deep understanding of the local property market, combined with national and international exposure through top property portals, ensures that we deliver results that matter. Being an independent firm, we are answerable to our clients not shareholders and take great pride in our achievements on their behalf.

At Jennie Jones, we believe estate agency is more than just a property business; it's a people business. We enjoy what we do and love the area we do it in.
