About this property
This charming, mid-terrace cottage is located on a quiet residential street in Pakefield, just a two-minute walk from the beach. Within walking distance of a good pub, with Lowestoft's local amenities within easy reach, it is an ideal holiday home for friends and families exploring the beautiful Suffolk coastline. From a pretty gated garden, the front door opens into an entrance hall with lots of space to hang coats and bags and store shoes. The sitting room is spacious with a large dining table, comfy seating beside patio doors looking out into the garden, plus a gas fire set in an ornate Victorian fireplace. The well-equipped kitchen has a washing machine so you don't need to worry about packing enough clothes, and from the kitchen is a door into the garden. Also on the ground floor is a modern, ground floor shower room, ideal for when you come back in from the beach. Upstairs are three bright bedrooms, one with a single bed, a second with twin beds overlooking the front of the property, and a third double. As well as three lovely bedrooms, there is also a further family bathroom upstairs to complete the accommodation. In the pretty, sunken garden you can sit out and enjoy the summer sunshine with lunch or a glass of wine in the evening. From the gate at the bottom of the garden, you can easily reach the beach in a couple of minutes and take a stroll by the sea. The town of Lowestoft has a good selection of pubs, bars and shops, as well as lots of traditional seaside attractions. A short distance away you can explore Africa Alive, visit the beautiful Somerleyton Hall or get your adrenaline high at the Pleasurewood Hills Theme Park! The town is in a perfect location for exploring both South Norfolk and North Suffolk, a delightful holiday home for all!
