Well positioned coastal town house
Castle Keep is a well-positioned town house set in an elevated position in the heart of Southwold with far reaching views across the marshes to the south west and over towards Walberswick.
Constructed from a blend of brick, painted weatherboard, and rendered elevations beneath a pitched pan-tiled roof, Castle Keep combines traditional charm with contemporary living. The rooms are well proportioned, with high ceilings and comprise large windows filling the rooms with natural light throughout. The property has undergone significant renovation and extension by the current owners to create a stylish and comfortable coastal home.
The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, which provides access to the sitting room, a generous and inviting space featuring a delightful bay window that floods the room with natural light. The stunning, contemporary open plan kitchen and dining area was redesigned and extended in 2017. This contemporary space features vaulted ceilings with skylights, bi-fold doors opening seamlessly onto the terrace, and additional French doors that enhance the indoor-outdoor flow. The well-appointed kitchen includes ample wall and base cabinetry, a central island, and integrated Neff appliances, including a double oven, dishwasher, wine fridge, and induction hob with extractor.
Also on the ground floor is a beautifully presented guest bedroom suite, accessible from the entrance hall, with French doors leading directly to the terrace.
Stairs lead up to the first floor which offers three bedrooms, each enjoying far-reaching views. The principal bedroom benefits from a dual aspect and includes an en suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.
Outside
The outdoor space at Castle Keep is private and takes full advantage of its elevated position and far-reaching views across the Southwold marshes. There is a large, paved terrace which extends directly from the kitchen and guest suite, providing a delightful space for al fresco dining and entertaining. Steps lead up to a raised decked area providing further views over the marshes. The terrace is also beautifully landscaped, featuring a central planted tree and well-defined raised borders. Castle Keep also has parking and a garage.
