Seaham seafront is the place to be.

Recent years have seen the town’s seafront transformed, with trendy shops and restaurants and the iconic Tommy statue drawing visitors from across the region.

Properties in the area are few and far between and highly sought-after - and now one of the most eye-catching could be yours.

The three-bed Violet House - no prizes for guessing where the name comes from - is on the market with Purplebricks with an asking price of £450,000.
