Description - This attractive mid-20th century detached family home occupies a generous plot, set well back from its own private road and screened by neatly trimmed conifers and mature planting. With its appealing tile-hung elevations and wonderfully secluded position, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy, complemented by a south-facing garden, ample off-road parking, and well-proportioned accommodation—ideal for family living. Situated in a sought-after and convenient location, it lies approximately one mile from the renowned seaside town of Southwold.

A recessed storm porch leads into an entrance lobby, which provides internal access to the garage and opens into the main hallway. Here, a deep cloaks cupboard, ground floor cloakroom, and staircase to the first floor create a practical and welcoming entrance.

The principal reception room is a generously sized living room, featuring a deep oriel bay window overlooking the private front garden and a gas stove set upon a raised quarry-tiled plinth. Folding opaque glazed doors lead through to a spacious dining room, which benefits from a large understairs storage cupboard and connects directly to the kitchen. From here, glazed casement doors open into a delightful sunroom, with windows to either side and wide patio doors that lead out onto the paved terrace and rear garden—perfect for entertaining and enjoying the outdoor space.

The kitchen also overlooks the rear garden and is fitted with an extensive range of storage cupboards, along with an integrated electric oven and hob. A doorway leads to a useful utility room, complete with work surfaces, storage, plumbing for a washing machine, and a stable door opening to the garden. The utility room also provides convenient access back into the main hallway.

Upstairs, the landing gives access to three particularly well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom, located at the rear, was formerly two rooms and now offers an especially spacious layout with two windows overlooking the garden. It presents excellent potential to be reconfigured into a fourth bedroom, dressing room, or en suite if desired. Adjacent are a separate WC and family bathroom, while the remaining bedrooms enjoy views over the front garden and the green beyond.

Outside, a concrete driveway crosses an area of green to provide ample off-road parking and access to the attached garage. The front garden is laid to lawn and bordered by a variety of established shrubs and conifers, creating a private and attractive setting. A side gate leads to the rear garden, which is also predominantly laid to lawn and features a wide paved terrace, well-stocked borders, and mature planting along the boundaries. Additional benefits include a greenhouse and a timber shed, completing this charming and versatile family home.
