Elegant Victorian townhouse with sea views, garden and garage.
Occupying a particularly special and highly sought-after position in the popular coastal town of Southwold, 1 Strickland Place is a handsome, well-proportioned Victorian townhouse that now offers an exciting opportunity for renovation, with the potential to create a spectacular seaside home.
The three-storey townhouse features attractive red brick elevations beneath a pantile roof, with bay and dormer windows to the front and timber-framed sash windows to the side and rear. These provide breathtaking views of the sea, Southwold Common, and the lighthouse.
The accommodation flows remarkably well, comprising generously proportioned, light-filled rooms throughout. The front door opens into a spacious reception hall, leading to the drawing room, sitting room, kitchen, cloakroom, and cellar. A staircase rises to the first and second floors.
The elegantly proportioned drawing room features high ceilings, tall skirting boards, original coving, and a picture rail. The bay window fills the room with natural light, with a door opening to the front garden. A further door leads to a bathroom, making this area ideal as a bedroom suite for multi-generational living.
The sitting room enjoys similar period features, including high ceilings, an attractive chimneypiece, and a bay window. The kitchen/breakfast room, at the rear, is fitted with base and wall-mounted units and offers views over the rear garden.
The first floor has two beautifully proportioned principal bedrooms, each benefitting from high ceilings, charming chimneypieces, and views towards the sea. Completing the first floor are two family bathrooms and a separate cloakroom. The second floor provides four further bedrooms and outstanding views over Southwold's most iconic landmarks.
1 Strickland Place enjoys an enchanting, private garden, ideal for al fresco dining. At the end of the garden is a useful garage.

I absolutely love the exceptional position of 1 Strickland Place, right in the heart of Southwold with stunning views of the sea, Common, and lighthouse. The charming period features and the private garden make this townhouse truly special, and its proximity to the beach and town centre is unbeatable. It's a home that perfectly captures the essence of coastal living.
