3 bedroom detached house for sale

Situated in Old Felixstowe, just a few minutes from the seafront, lies this nicely presented and extended three bedroom detached house. The property benefits from a good size rear garden with enclosed heated swimming pool, ample off-road parking, integral garage, and solar panels to both the flat roof which is the extended part of the house, and the main roof. We have been advised that the solar panels generate an income of approximately £900 per annum from the feed-in tariff. In addition, household electricity bills run out at approximately £50 per month including running costs for the pool due to free electricity generated and used during the day when the system is running allowing the pool to be filtered and heated at no additional cost. As agents, we recommend the earliest possible internal viewing to appreciate the quality and size of the accommodation on offer which comprises front porch, large entrance hall, ground floor shower room, contemporary kitchen, utility room, 24ft sitting room with wood burner, dining room, study, first floor landing, three bedrooms, and large four piece family bathroom. The house is fully fitted with an alarm system set up with ADT but would just need a contract.

Felixstowe is a much loved, traditional seaside resort known for its promenade and Blue Flag quality sand and shingle beach which have both been beautifully restored in 2017, perfectly kept seafront gardens with a new bandstand and water fountain offering ocean views, and a variety of seaside attractions. The pier has been brought back to life with a modern twist with eating areas, wine bars, outside seating all around the pier and, occasionally, live music. The beach huts in all their pretty glory have been given a new lease of life with their lovely neutral traditional seaside colours.

Felixstowe is also home to the UK’s largest, and Europe’s busiest, container port and the viewing area at Landguard offers great views of ships coming into the port and here too, are the Landguard Bird Observatory and Landguard Peninsular nature reserves. There is a foot and cycle ferry crossing between Felixstowe and Harwich.

North of the town centre is the fishing village of Old Felixstowe with its gallery, golf course and riverside inns. The area between Manor End and Cobbold’s Point is Felixstowe’s main seafront and can be explored along a two mile long promenade. Further along the promenade you come across Felixstowe’s colourful and intriguing Seafront Gardens which start beside the Town Hall and stretch for a mile along the promenade and are well worth exploring.

The town itself has a wide range of shops, eateries, pubs, churches, parks, recreational facilities, a library and a railway station.
