Location
Leonard Drive is located within the well-established Parkhill estate in the northern part of Lowestoft. Shops and daily conveniences are easily accessible, with a local convenience store and several takeaways within walking distance. For larger grocery needs, both Aldi and Tesco superstores are located within a mile of the estate. Additionally, nearby retail parks and Lowestoft town centre offer a broader range of shops, restaurants, and services, all within a 10-minute drive.
Educational facilities in the area are strong, with several highly regarded schools nearby. Woods Loke Primary School and Gunton Primary Academy both serve the local community and are within easy reach of Leonard Drive. For older children, Benjamin Britten Academy is a short walk away and has a good reputation locally. Further education is available at Lowestoft Sixth Form College and East Coast College, both situated less than two miles away.
Healthcare provision is well-covered, with a number of gp surgeries, such as The Rosedale Surgery and Bridge Road Surgery, located within a few minutes’ drive. Pharmacies and dental practices are also close by, and Lowestoft Hospital, although no longer providing A&E services, offers outpatient and community care. The James Paget University Hospital in Gorleston is the nearest major hospital for emergency and specialist care, approximately 20 minutes by car.
Transport links are excellent, with easy access to the A47, connecting Lowestoft to Great Yarmouth and Norwich. Regular local bus services run through the Parkhill area, offering direct routes into central Lowestoft and nearby villages. For rail travel, Oulton Broad North and Lowestoft stations provide services to Norwich and Ipswich, making commuting feasible for those working further afield.
