About
Set on the edge of the sought-after Somerleyton estate, this charming period cottage offers the perfect balance of semi-rural tranquillity and convenient access to the nearby coastal town of Lowestoft.
Enjoying a generous plot and presenting excellent scope for extension (subject to planning), the property combines character, potential, and a highly desirable setting.
One of several cottages being sold by the same vendor by us currently, this particular home adjoins a neighbouring property—also available to purchase—offering a rare opportunity to acquire both and create a detached residence if desired.
The cottage itself benefits from a wide footprint for its type, allowing for wonderfully well-proportioned rooms throughout.
The sitting room enjoys a tall sash window that floods the space with natural light, a feature fireplace with tiled surround, and original strip wood flooring, setting a warm and welcoming tone.
The dining room sits to the rear, with a useful understairs storage cupboard, while the adjoining kitchen offers a range of white base units with contrasting work surfaces and tiled splashbacks.
A rear lobby provides access to the garden and leads to the ground floor bathroom, fitted with a matching white suite.
Upstairs, there are two comfortable double bedrooms, the principal benefitting from an en suite shower room of generous proportions.
Outside, the gardens are mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by hedging and mature trees, with ample space for parking and further landscaping.
Offered with vacant possession, this delightful cottage would make an ideal coastal retreat, a full-time home, or a smart investment opportunity.
