Campy crime thriller, The Perfect Couple, has been topping the Netflix charts since it arrived on the streaming platform.

The show stars Aussie export Nicole Kidman as wealthy author Greer Garrison Winbury and Liev Schreiber as her philandering husband. The star-studded drama centres around a lavish family wedding that ends in disaster after a body is discovered on the beach.

Undoubtedly, one of the most iconic aspects of the series is the incredible house and its beachfront location. The fictional Summerland estate is a private property located in the picturesque New England town of Cape Cod.
