Description
Mansard House is a light-filled, beautifully presented home with retained seaside charm including sash windows and exposed beams.
Mansard House is positioned in a prominent, elevated position in the centre of Aldeburgh's popular High Street.
The front door opens into a spacious entrance hall with a wonderful arched window and partially glazed timber door giving access to rear garden. Stairs lead up to the double aspect kitchen, which has handmade cabinetry, granite work surfaces, Falcon range cooker, Butler sink and integrated dishwasher.
Off the kitchen is a double aspect dining room, which has a contemporary wood burning stove and enjoys views over the high street. Flowing from the dining area is a hallway, which in turn leads to a delightful sitting room with a wood burning stove and French doors to a terrace ideal for al fresco dining. There is also a snug overlooking the high street with a handsome cast iron fireplace.
On the second floor are three generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has wonderful views of the high street and a door leading directly to the jack and jill bathroom. Completing the second floor is a further family bathroom. Stairs lead up to a third floor with an additional two double bedrooms.
To the rear, Mansard House enjoys an excellent south-west facing garden, which can be accessed either through a side gate on Chopping's Hill or through the house itself. The garden is split into different levels. The first level is partly laid with shingle and partly paved. Stairs lead to a decked balcony and the remainder of the garden has been laid to lawn and interspersed with a variety of flowers and shrubs.
Location
Manard House occupies a sought-after position in the heart of the popular coastal town of Aldeburgh, within the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Closely associated with the composer, Benjamin Britten and famed for its pebble beach and iconic 'Scallop' sculpture by Maggi Hambling, Aldeburgh is a thriving seaside resort with an exceptional array of amenities.
There are superb restaurants, including the celebrated Fish & Chip Shop and The Suffolk. Aldeburgh offers a wonderful selection of cafés, independent shops, galleries, a delicatessen, butchers and wine merchant. The Aldeburgh Cinema was founded in 1919 and is one of the oldest in the country. Aldeburgh has tennis, golf and sailing clubs.
Neighbouring Thorpeness (2.5 miles) has a charming boating lake, country club and golf club. Snape Maltings (6.6 miles) is home to the internationally renowned concert hall, with various concerts and cultural events throughout the year.
Historic market towns, Saxmundham (7.5 miles), Framlingham (14 miles) and Woodbridge (17 miles), provide a comprehensive range of amenities, including Tesco and Waitrose supermarkets in Saxmundham.
Ipswich (26 miles), the county town of Suffolk, provides a wide selection of independent and high street shops; numerous restaurants and a variety of theatres, galleries, and museums.
For the commuter, Mansard House benefits from easy access to the A12 (7 miles); there are branch line railway stations in Saxmundham (to London Liverpool Street from 115 minutes) and Woodbridge (from 92 minutes). Ipswich offers direct trains from 68 minutes.
Schools in the area are excellent including Orwell Park Prep School, Summerhill, Woodbridge School, Framlingham College and Ipswich School, all of which are included in the Good Schools Guide.
