The details
Commanding the corner of Gun Hill with uninterrupted views across the shimmering Suffolk coast, Cannons is one of Southwold’s most iconic residences. This grand yet welcoming seaside home places you front row for sunrise over the sea and salty afternoon strolls along the beach. From its glass floored lookout deck to its wrap-around garden, every corner has been designed to make the most of that extraordinary coastal setting.
Step inside and you’re greeted by a characterful entrance hall, complete with feature fireplace and woodburner, plus shelves of books inviting you to slow down and settle in. The heart of the house is the vast dual aspect lounge, kitchen and dining space, where generous sofas and a central footstool create a sociable hub for long lazy mornings and celebratory dinners. There’s also a separate games room with its own woodburner, perfect for competitive evenings, and a cosy snug with bean bags and a wall-mounted smart TV for film nights.
Six beautiful bedrooms are spread across three floors, each with its own ensuite. On the ground floor, a king size garden view bedroom enjoys glimpses of the pier and beach. Upstairs, the Juliette bedroom offers a super-king size bed that can be made into twins, while the pier view room and the spectacular seaview suite promise indulgent comfort and sea-gazing from bed. The suite’s private balcony, dressing room and freestanding bath add a boutique hotel feel. A bunk room with balcony and a charming turret bedroom tucked beneath sloping ceilings ensure there’s space for everyone, whether you’re travelling with friends or three generations of family.
Outside, the wrap-around lawn and north-facing patio are ideal for alfresco dining, while the glass floored lookout deck delivers breathtaking panoramic views along the coastline. With private parking and an EV charger, everything has been considered for a seamless stay.
Southwold itself is a joy to explore. Wander along the famous pier, browse independent shops, sample fresh seafood and local ales, or head out along the Suffolk & Essex Coast and Heaths National Landscape for bracing coastal walks. From beach days to long pub lunches, this stretch of the Suffolk coast offers something special in every season.
