London Road South, Lowestoft, Suffolk, NR33

Character and clarity of a clearly well considered vision come together beautifully in this detached period home, where delightful corners wait for quiet afternoons and period features sing within their preservation. The current owners have done a wonderful job sympathetically revealing this homes soul rather than reinventing it, restoring many original features and with a careful eye adding more softening touches giving the entire house a welcoming and cosy feel from the moment you step inside.
With light pouring through the bay window, the sitting room feels relaxed and cosy with the log-burning stove ready to warm up those wintery evenings, here as throughout the entire house, the owners eye for design is evident with carefully chosen palettes and textures cohesively honouring the homes original character.
The dining room sits comfortably next to the kitchen with a sociable flow from one room to another. It is worth noting that the current owners recently enquired to remove the party wall between the kitchen and dining area to open up a much larger space and were informed that the wall is not structural so could potentially be a relatively easy fix should you prefer. Worn flagstone flooring leads you to the back of the house where the cosy snug opens up charming views through to the garden, another space to be enjoyed throughout the ever-changing seasons.
Another little gem is the ground floor bath suite, luminous in stunning design and so perfectly in tune with the bohemic theme yet entirely practical in addition to the first floor suite. Upstairs, soulful rooms with minimalistic and calming tones set the scene, where period elements pop and shine through feature fireplaces and the bay window in the largest bedroom brightens even the dullest day. All three bedrooms lead comfortably from the landing in addition to the extra bath suite.

Outside

Slightly tucked away from the road, the driveway to the front allows space to park two vehicles off road. Well considered beds and borders frame the frontage whilst the Wisteria is learning to trail alongside the flank of the house. To the rear, the enclosed garden is a haven for peace, tranquillity and a myriad of birdlife in the surrounding trees. Nestled within the heart of Pakefield, the sandy shores of Pakefield beach are a short stroll away, as are local shops, pubs and transport links. A truly wonderful neighbourhood to call home.

Franks Thoughts...

A house where we instantly felt at home and in love with...! The finish is nothing short of an absolute triumph in terms of interior goals, where every last details has clearly been so carefully considered. The location is the cherry on the cake for Frank, we're already envious of the lucky new owner.
