About
Set only moments from Southwold’s celebrated seafront and pier, this beautifully extended detached home offers a double garage and the very best of coastal living — elegant interiors, generous proportions, and a wonderful sense of light and space.
Perfectly placed for morning walks along the promenade or relaxed afternoons entertaining in the garden, this is a home designed for both comfort and style.
From the moment you step inside, the sense of welcome is immediate. A charming storm porch opens to a bright hallway with a cloakroom set adjacent, creating a practical yet graceful entrance.
To the front, a refined sitting room features an Adams-style fireplace and a wide bay window that frames the changing coastal light.
To the rear, a generous reception space extends into a vaulted garden room, where Velux windows and sliding doors draw in sunshine and views of the terraced garden beyond — an idyllic spot for gatherings that flow easily between indoors and out.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully arranged with a range of warm timber-effect cabinetry, complemented by contrasting worktops and windows overlooking the rear and side aspect.
There is ample room for casual dining, with integrated appliances including a double oven and gas hob, plus plumbing for a washing machine.
Upstairs, the first floor offers two comfortable double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom enjoys partial sea views, while the rear bedroom looks out across the gardens.
The family bathroom features both a bath and a separate shower enclosure, finished in neutral tones.
A cleverly designed staircase leads to the top floor, where the converted loft provides a peaceful third bedroom.
Twin Velux windows offer captivating glimpses of the sea, while the en-suite shower room completes this private retreat — perfect for visiting guests or quiet moments of escape.
The gardens have been landscaped for easy enjoyment, with elegant geometric inlays, a raised terrace, and a charming loggia wrapped in greenery.
Steps lead to the double garage and workshop, accessible from a private rear lane that also offers further parking on hardstanding.
Offered with vacant possession, this is a rare opportunity to secure a truly versatile coastal home — one equally suited to full-time residence, a stylish weekend getaway, or a desirable holiday retreat in the heart of Southwold.
