Nestling by the blue-green River Debden, stretching toward the sea, Woodbridge occupies gently undulating slopes on which ancient and modern buildings easily rub shoulders. According to Woodbridge estate agents the town is one of three main hotspots in the area for coastal property. Although Woodbridge doesn't have coastal views, the property market is very healthy and prices are increasing fast. Traditionally, buyers came to Suffolk from Essex and the surrounding area, but more recently a high percentage of purchasers have been from London. Interestingly, many buyers take up painting, which is unsurprising as it is Constable Country. The town offers people considering Woodbridge property a charming, quiet Suffolk market town with easy access to Ipswich, London and further afield.
