Description
Set discreetly and accessed via a private drive to the rear, this striking 1960s detached home presents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a Southwold property with genuine architectural character, generous proportions, and exciting potential. Offering driveway parking, a garage, and a private garden, the home is positioned in a tucked-away setting just moments from Pier Avenue and the seafront beyond.
Internally, the house showcases the hallmarks of mid-century design—floor-to-ceiling windows, a strong connection with the outdoors, and light-filled, double-aspect rooms. The main reception room is ideal for entertaining, opening into a garden room which further enhances the living space. A second reception room offers flexibility for a study, snug or guest bedroom, while a ground floor cloakroom offers scope to be enlarged into a shower room—enabling full ground floor living if desired.
Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a shower room and separate cloakroom. A door opens to a elevated sun terrace to the rear, with a bridge providing a direct link to Pier Avenue and easy pedestrian access to the promenade and beach.
Lovingly held within the same family for 37 years, the home now invites a new chapter—whether for renovation, reconfiguration, or redevelopment—offering buyers the chance to create a truly individual Southwold residence with mid-century soul.
