Two bedrooms in a Victorian end-terrace cottage
This charming two-bedroom Victorian end-terrace is a short, level walk from Southwold and the beach, making it an attractive coastal bolthole or first home. The house retains period character — cast-iron fireplace, Adams-style surround and a porch — combined with practical living space across two reception rooms and a south-west facing garden that catches afternoon sun.
Internally the layout is traditional and straightforward: sitting room into dining room, kitchen opening to the garden, and two well-proportioned bedrooms with useful built-in storage. The garden is small but private and low-maintenance, with gravel patios and mature shrubs — ideal for evening sun or simple outdoor entertaining.
There are some construction and services facts to note: the property has solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation, secondary glazing, and a mix of electric heating technologies (air source heat pump, warm air, electric). Tenure is not confirmed in the supplied details. These factors affect running costs and potential upgrade work, but also create clear opportunities to add value through insulation and modern heating improvements.
Offered with vacant possession and previously used as a holiday let and coastal bolt-hole, this home suits a buyer seeking a character property close to amenities and the seafront. For a first-time buyer it’s an affordable entry into the Southwold area; for someone prepared to carry out targeted improvements it could offer both comfort and long-term savings.
