Set on a generous plot in sought-after Reydon, this detached single-storey home offers substantial renovation potential and clear coastal appeal. The bungalow layout provides easy, step-free living, three bedrooms and a large open-plan sitting/dining room that captures views towards Southwold’s lighthouse and water tower.
The mature wrap-around garden, greenhouse and single garage are strong assets for gardeners or buyers seeking outdoor privacy. Practical features include a utility/boot area with WC, a walk-in pantry off the kitchen, driveway parking and mains gas central heating. Broadband and mobile signal are both excellent.
The house does require modernisation: visible dated fittings, an EPC rating of D and cavity walls likely without added insulation mean energy upgrades are advisable. There is one family bathroom and one shower room off a bedroom, so families should note limited bathroom provision. Built in the late 1960s–1970s, the property is structurally typical of its era but will benefit from cosmetic and thermal improvements.
Located a short walk from Southwold’s shops, cafes and coast, and close to Reydon’s local amenities and schools, this freehold bungalow suits downsizers or buyers looking for a renovation project with strong long-term value in a very affluent, low-crime area. Council tax band A keeps running costs low.
