The Stylish Two-Bed Duplex In A Great Location...
Set within the rolling landscape of the Blyth Valley and just moments from Suffolk’s celebrated Heritage Coast, this elegant two-bedroom duplex forms part of a striking Grade II listed Georgian building, originally constructed in 1766 as the Blythburgh Workhouse. Later serving as a convalescent hospital, the building has since been thoughtfully restored and converted into a select number of stylish homes, blending timeless architecture with modern-day comfort in an idyllic countryside setting.
Number 16 occupies a delightful position within the development, its front door opening onto a quiet courtyard framed by mature greenery and historic brick façades. A private parking space is conveniently close by, and from here, well-tended paths lead through the approx. 12 acres of communal grounds, which include meadows, walking paths and access to the resident-only leisure complex — a true hidden gem, offering a heated indoor swimming pool, fitness room, and games room, all included within the service charge.
Inside, the home is bright and beautifully proportioned, arranged across three levels. The entrance hall provides access to a dry cellar — ideal for storage or creative use — before stairs rise to the main living areas. On the first floor, a spacious sitting and dining room welcomes you with sash windows, original beams, high ceilings, and a gas-connected fireplace (currently fitted with an electric stove). The adjacent kitchen is well-appointed with a range of integrated appliances, a Belfast sink, and a generous larder cupboard, with views over the peaceful courtyard.
Upstairs are two excellent double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is notably generous, with room for a super king bed and countryside views through the dormer window. The second bedroom is bright and versatile, with skylights and ample space. A well-appointed bathroom features a traditional suite, including a p-shaped bath and overhead shower.
Set amid approximately 12 acres of landscaped and natural grounds, the Blyth View development enjoys a rare blend of history and nature. The setting is peaceful and private, with footpaths leading directly from the property into open countryside and marshland. The village of Blythburgh is home to the magnificent Holy Trinity Church and lies within easy reach of Southwold, Walberswick and Dunwich — making it ideal for both full-time living and weekend escapes.
Offered chain-free, the property can also be sold fully furnished by separate negotiation — an excellent option for those seeking a ready-to-enjoy coastal retreat or second home.
