The Old Vicarage, Maybush Lane, Felixstowe, IP11

Built in 1894, The Old Vicarage couples striking historic grandeur with a comprehensive, down-to-the-studs renovation. The current owners have meticulously preserved the building’s original elegance while introducing a clean, contemporary aesthetic. The result is a home of remarkable scale and sophisticated simplicity, where 3.2 metre ceilings, abundant natural light, and impressive proportions take centre stage.

Expansive aluminium-framed windows in Diamond Grey capture views across the private courtyard, manicured gardens, and glimpses of the sea beyond. In the warmer months, bi-fold doors open to invite in cooling coastal breezes, while zoned underfloor heating ensures a luxurious, even warmth throughout the winter. Feature fireplaces serve as focal points, adding charm and ambience to the living spaces.

The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive, comprising four exceptionally generous double bedrooms, two luxurious ensuites and a beautifully appointed family bathroom. The upper floors also provide ideal spaces for home working, study or simply enjoying the elevated outlook.

A particular highlight is the first-floor terrace. Served by a dedicated kitchenette, it provides a seamless extension of the living space, perfect for hosting evening drinks or enjoying a quiet morning coffee from this peaceful, elevated vantage point.

A Bespoke Opportunity: The principal kitchen space has been fully prepared with all necessary services and infrastructural plumbing/electrics in place. This allows the incoming purchaser the unique opportunity to design and install a bespoke kitchen tailored entirely to their own tastes and requirements.

The ground floor layout is designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen courtyard captures the morning sun, a perfect, peaceful space for breakfast. The garden room, complete with an adjacent shower room, opens directly onto a spa deck featuring a sunken Jacuzzi. Around the corner lies a dedicated alfresco dining area with direct access back into the main living room. The expertly landscaped grounds feature mature privacy hedging, vibrant flower beds, and a pathway leading to a charming grove of sixteen white birch trees.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the property has been thoroughly modernised for efficient, practical living. High-specification upgrades include:

-Extensive Insulation
-Zoned Underfloor Heating on all three floors
-Water Softening System to the whole house
-Filtered Water to both Kitchen and Kitchenette
-Comprehensive External lighting and power points
-Provision for EV Charging and Ample Off-Road Parking

The location is every bit as impressive as the property itself. The seafront is less than a 250 metre stroll away, while Brackenbury Sports Centre lies approximately 350 metres from the property. A convenient cluster of everyday amenities can be found at the top of the street, including a SPAR convenience store, Post Office, Butchers, Hairdressers, Beauty Salon, Lotty's Café and more. Felixstowe Ferry, the Golf Club, Tennis Club and Town Centre are all within easy reach.

Old Felixstowe remains one of the Suffolk coast's most desirable addresses, prized for its mature surroundings, proximity to the sea and relaxed atmosphere. From morning walks along the promenade to afternoons at the golf or tennis club, and evenings spent enjoying the town's cafés and restaurants, it is a location that effortlessly balances lifestyle and convenience.
