A landmark house tucked away in the very heart of Woodbridge with fantastic views across the town's roofscape and River Deben. Dating from 1816 this listed Grade II, Georgian town house enjoys a wonderfully central and tucked away position, just off Church Street and behind the Thoroughfare. Formerly used by Suffolk Seeds Stores for many years, the property was reconverted to a house in 1986 by well reputed local firm Ingram Smith. Somewhat of a landmark property when viewed from a distance, Alexander House, is probably the tallest house in Woodbridge.

The house features an impressive first floor drawing room with deep sash windows, 12ft high ceiling, gas fireplace and a fully glazed bay window which opens onto a delightful balcony.

Across the second and third floors are three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master bedroom at the top of the property offers a large walk-in wardrobe, formally the forth bedroom, and could easily be reinstated if desired.
