Your Move Mablethorpe Area guide

Ian McCarthy, Director at the Sutton on Sea branch says 'Imagine stepping back into the 1950's if you can, then you will have some idea of life in Sutton on sea, Sandilands and surrounding villages. Mostly a retirement area that just happens to be beside the seaside, where the people are friendly and the location is delightful.'

We have an extensive choice of housing stock from apartments, bungalows through to family homes and country residences, plenty of choice for those searching for property for sale in and around Sutton on Sea. So if you are looking for a coastal property in Lincolnshire, a quiet country residence or an impressive detached home with land then Sutton on Sea could be the ideal location for you.
