Durban Road, Lowestoft, Suffolk, NR33

A charming home with character, generous gardens and a wonderfully peaceful setting. Set along a quiet no-through road, this attractive semi-detached house combines period character with well-proportioned accommodation and an exceptional garden. Set back from the road, the property immediately enjoys a sense of privacy, with off-street parking and an established front garden creating a welcoming approach.

The front door opens into a light and inviting hallway, leading through to the principal reception spaces. Positioned at the front of the house, the sitting room is full of character, with a handsome bay window overlooking the garden and a feature fireplace creating an appealing focal point. To the rear, the dining room provides a more intimate setting, with a corner fireplace and useful under-stairs storage, before opening into a delightful garden room. With tiled flooring and doors and windows overlooking the garden, this is an especially enjoyable space from which to appreciate the outdoors throughout the seasons. An archway leads into the kitchen, where striking blue cabinetry is complemented by contrasting work surfaces. Integrated appliances include a stainless-steel double oven and hob, with further space for a washing machine and fridge freezer. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, both served by the family bathroom, which features a corner bath, pedestal wash hand basin and close-coupled WC, together with partially tiled walls. A further staircase leads to the converted loft space, providing an impressive additional room. Flooded with natural light from twin Velux windows overlooking the rear, this versatile area could make an excellent home office, hobby room, occasional bedroom or quiet retreat. Useful eaves storage is also accessed from here.

The gardens are undoubtedly one of the property’s greatest assets. Extending to an impressive depth, the plot has been thoughtfully arranged into a series of terraces, creating different spaces for entertaining, relaxing and gardening. Close to the house is a paved seating area with shingle borders, mature shrubs and perennial planting, before the garden steps down to a generous area of lawn. Beyond this, the plot continues towards a more wooded section, creating a wonderfully secluded backdrop. For those who enjoy gardening, outdoor entertaining or simply having space to escape, this is a particularly special garden. There is ample room for children and dogs to enjoy, while the established planting and mature trees give the whole plot the atmosphere of a private garden retreat.
