Florence Road, Pakefield
Arranged over three floors, the property showcases an abundance of original features including stained glass windows, exposed floorboards, fireplaces and decorative detailing, while offering generous and versatile accommodation throughout.
With some areas currently undergoing renovation, the property provides an exciting chance for a new owner to complete the ongoing improvements and create a truly exceptional coastal home tailored to their own tastes and requirements.
The property is approached via a tiled frontage enclosed by traditional brick wall boundaries, where a period entrance door opens into the entrance hall. Instantly setting the tone for the accommodation beyond, the hall retains original tiled flooring and period character, while providing access to the principal ground-floor rooms and staircase rising to the upper floors.
At the heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen/dining room, a generously proportioned space thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Original tiled flooring enhances the period appeal, while an extensive range of fitted units and solid wood work surfaces provide practicality and character. French doors open directly onto the courtyard garden, allowing natural light to flood the room and creating an excellent connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. A particularly distinctive feature is the underground wine cellar, adding further individuality to this already impressive room.
Leading through from the kitchen, the living room offers a warm and inviting atmosphere. Centred around a cast iron log burner set within an exposed brick chimney breast, the room provides an ideal setting for relaxing with family and guests. The accommodation continues into a further versatile reception room currently utilised as a home office. Whilst this area is undergoing renovation, it offers excellent potential as a dedicated workspace, playroom for children, or additional reception area depending on individual requirements.
The first-floor landing continues the property's character theme with original exposed floorboards and provides access to two well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The family bathroom is particularly noteworthy, featuring a stained-glass window, a traditional roll-top bath and period detailing that complements the home's heritage.
The principal bedroom is an exceptionally generous double room benefiting from natural light and an en-suite arrangement incorporating a shower room and separate WC. While some updating is required, the space offers significant scope for enhancement and presents an opportunity to create a stylish and luxurious principal suite. The second bedroom is another spacious double room featuring original wooden flooring, an attractive fireplace, decorative coving and picture rails. A standout feature is the direct access onto a private balcony, providing an appealing outlook and a pleasant spot to enjoy the coastal air.
Ascending to the second-floor, the accommodation continues with two further double bedrooms, each displaying a wealth of period character. Exposed floorboards, feature beams and original fireplaces contribute to the charm of these rooms, while their generous proportions make them ideal for family members, guests or additional work-from-home space if required.
Also located on the upper-floor is a substantial bathroom area currently undergoing renovation. Offering considerable flexibility, this space has the potential to become a family bathroom serving the upper floor accommodation or alternatively an additional bedroom.
Externally, the south-west facing courtyard garden has been designed for ease of maintenance whilst providing an enjoyable setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. Enclosed by brick wall boundaries for privacy, the garden features a combination of artificial lawn and brick-weave patio.
