This truly exceptional and deceptively spacious four double bedroom Edwardian semi-detached home is rich in character and charm and is situated in the popular town of Leiston.

Leiston is found a short drive inland from Suffolk’s Heritage Coast between Thorpeness and Aldeburgh, approximately 6 miles from Snape Maltings and approximately 5 miles from RSPB Minsmere. Home to the Long Shop Museum, Leiston has a good range of shops and amenities for all ages including a Co-op supermarket, chemists, hardware stores, a post office, doctors and dentist surgeries, a primary and secondary school, vets, library, sports centre, cinema and recreational parks as well as a good selection of pubs and fast-food takeaways. The town is served by a regular bus service to outlying villages and beyond and with Saxmundham’s railway station only four miles away, Ipswich and London are easily accessible. You can also explore the 14th century Leiston Abbey ruins.
