This Grade II listed two-bedroom maisonette occupies a tasteful Georgian conversion set within approximately 12 acres of communal grounds near the Suffolk Heritage Coast. Arranged over three floors, the home combines period features — sash windows, exposed beams and a fireplace — with practical updates such as a well-equipped kitchen with Belfast sink, integrated appliances and double glazing (install date unknown). The property is chain-free and can be sold fully furnished by separate negotiation, making it suitable as a ready-to-enjoy coastal retreat or a full-time rural home.
Practical positives include a dry cellar for storage or creative use, an allocated off-street parking space, and residents-only leisure facilities (heated indoor pool, gym and games room) covered by the service charge. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; the building’s solid brick construction reflects its age and character. The long lease (999 years) removes short-lease complications common to conversions.
Important considerations are clear and factual: the home carries Grade II listed status, which will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance or renovation. There is an annual service charge (around £3,200) covering communal maintenance and leisure facilities, and the property is leasehold. The maisonette’s multi-level layout includes stairs between floors, which may not suit all mobility needs. Overall, this is a character-filled home for buyers who value historic setting, communal grounds and resident amenities, and who are comfortable with listed-building constraints and ongoing service charges.
