About this property
Tucked away along a quiet private track in the heart of Thorpeness, Alexander House is a peaceful coastal retreat perfectly suited for romantic escapes and small families. Spend slow mornings wandering to the iconic Meare, follow the coastal path towards Aldeburgh, or enjoy an evening drink at the nearby village pub before retreating home to the warmth of the wood-burning stove. With a generous enclosed garden, perfect for four-legged companions, a characterful Aga kitchen and the beach just a short stroll away, it’s a wonderfully relaxed base for switching off and embracing life on the Suffolk coast.
Step inside to the spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area, where the traditional Aga sits at the heart of the well-equipped kitchen. Settle around the dining table for leisurely breakfasts and evening meals, or sink into the comfortable seating and warm up beside the wood-burning stove after a day exploring the coast. French doors connect the living space with the garden, filling the room with natural light during the warmer months.Upstairs, the generous master bedroom features a super-king size bed and its own en-suite bathroom, creating a restful retreat at the end of the day. A second bedroom with twin single beds sits alongside the family bathroom, making the house equally well suited to a small family or friends travelling together.
Outside, the large enclosed garden provides plenty of space to relax, dine alfresco or enjoy a summer barbecue, while four-legged companions can explore safely. Set away from the road and backing onto the practice range at Thorpeness Golf Club, the setting feels wonderfully secluded despite being so close to the centre of the village.
For larger groups, Alexander House (4) is also available as a sleeps 13 option, with all bedrooms opened for your stay. Search for: Alexander House.
