Southwold in Suffolk is not usually known as a place of modernity, but 7 Mill Lane is more than happy to buck that trend, while occupying a prime position in one of Britain's best seaside towns.

Built in 2007, with substantial updates in 2022, this oak-framed home offers eight bedrooms and all the top amenities a seaside luxury home could need.

An entire eight acres and an exceptional home, within six miles of the City of London? Surely it's not possible.

It is possible at Holmehurst, a 10-bedroom Victorian Gothic masterpiece in Epping Forest. Glorious interiors are matched with spacious grounds and a fascinating history.

To say Brandiston Hall is one of the finest country homes in East Anglia would be doing it a disservice. Listed Grade II, with 17th century origins, the property offers six bedrooms and 8.7 acres of glorious gardens. The architectural detailing throughout is second-to-none.
