A bay fronted Victorian seaside town town house of exceptional quality having undergone extensive renovation and extension, a stones throw from the beach. Stradbroke Road is the perfect location in the heart of the Conservation Area, just a short 150 yard stroll from the sea front and beach. Just around the corner is the famous Lord Nelson Pub, market place and High Street of this charming coastal town. Southwold is situated on the East Suffolk Heritage Coast, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The town has an excellent range of shops and is well known for its architecture, pier, sandy beach, working harbour, common and greens.
An elegant bay-fronted Victorian seaside townhouse, ideally located just a few moments from the seafront, lighthouse and the High Street of this renowned coastal town. Combining charming period features with stylish modern improvements, the property offers beautifully presented accommodation arranged over three floors.
A storm porch shelters the panel-glazed entrance door which opens into a welcoming hallway with the original staircase rising to the first floor. Contemporary oak-finished internal doors lead to the reception rooms. At the front of the property, the sitting room is filled with natural light from a large bay window overlooking Stradbroke Road. This attractive room retains much of its period character, including high ceilings with moulded coving and an elegant brick fireplace with pamment tiled hearth housing a wood-burning stove. To the rear, a second reception room provides a versatile living space with a full-height double-glazed window to the rear.
From the hallway, a neatly fitted cloakroom with corner hand basin, WC and tiled walls sits beneath the stairs. A doorway then leads through to the kitchen/breakfast room, which is fitted with a range of shaker-style wall and base cupboards complemented by polished stone work surfaces and matching upstands. A butler sink with tiled surrounds adds further character, while integrated appliances include a gas hob with stainless steel cooker hood over, an electric double oven, and space for a fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine.
Beyond the kitchen, a bright and airy garden sitting room provides a wonderful additional living space. Featuring a part-vaulted ceiling with double-glazed roof lights, this room is filled with natural light and opens seamlessly to the garden through wide bifold doors.
The first-floor landing returns to a half landing before the staircase continues to the second floor. The principal bedroom is positioned at the front of the property and features a decorative cast-iron fireplace with inset tiles, a fitted wardrobe and double-glazed sash windows overlooking Stradbroke Road. The ensuite bathroom is stylishly appointed with a P-shaped shower bath, vanity hand basin with storage below, WC and extensive wall and floor tiling, complemented by an opaque double-glazed sash window.
Two further bedrooms are located at the rear of the house, one with an ornamental cast-iron fireplace and both enjoying double-glazed windows overlooking to the rear elevations. The family bathroom is equally well appointed with a P-shaped bath, hand basin with storage below, and fully tiled walls and floor, while a separate WC with wall-hung hand basin and opaque double-glazed window adds further practicality.
From the landing, stairs rise to the impressive loft conversion. A landing with large roof light offers a delightful outlook with glimpses of the sea, while the generously proportioned loft bedroom enjoys two double-glazed roof lights facing east, providing an abundance of natural light and sea view.
Outside, bifold doors from the garden sitting room open onto a spacious paved terrace—ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. This leads to an area of artificial lawn bordered by raised beds. At the far end of the garden stands a mature holly tree alongside a timber garden shed, with a rear gate giving pedestrian access to a passageway leading along the back of the terrace to Dunwich Road.
