Set in a prime Southwold position moments from the beach and high street, this handsome four-bedroom house offers generous, versatile accommodation across multiple floors and outstanding sea and lighthouse views. The property has been a much-loved home for over 30 years and presents in immaculate condition, with multiple reception rooms, a home office and fast fibre broadband — well suited to family life or a seaside base.
The house sits on a huge, principally west-facing plot with a terrace, lawns, greenhouse and direct gated access to St. James Green. A generous integrated garage and useful cellar provide substantial storage and off-street parking, rare for the town centre.
Practical considerations are clear: EPC rating D and the original solid brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, so upgrading thermal performance could be beneficial and will reduce running costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The layout over four floors and age (early 20th century construction) mean buyers should inspect for typical period maintenance items despite the home's well-presented condition.
For families seeking space, defined reception areas and excellent local amenities — beaches, boutique shops, schools and leisure facilities — this property combines seaside character with everyday convenience. Investors or buyers seeking a lock-up-and-leave second home will value location and garden size, but should factor possible energy-efficiency improvements into budgets.
