Location
Oulton Street is a quiet residential road nestled in the heart of Oulton village, just north of Oulton Broad and a short distance from Lowestoft’s bustling town centre. Local amenities are within easy reach. Nearby, residents have access to small independent shops including a convenience store, a post office, and several takeaways. For a broader retail offering, the supermarkets, retail parks, and seafront shops in central Lowestoft are just a short drive or bus ride away. Healthcare needs are well-catered for, with local gp surgeries and dental practices located within a mile, and a pharmacy within walking distance. Larger medical facilities, including James Paget University Hospital, are accessible by car in nearby Gorleston.
Families will appreciate the close proximity to highly-rated primary schools, including Woods Loke and The Limes Primary Academy, while older children are served by several local secondary schools such as Benjamin Britten Academy. Nurseries and childcare options are also available within the village and surrounding area.
Transport links are a major asset to Oulton Street. Oulton Broad North and South railway stations provide direct routes to Norwich and Ipswich, making commuting feasible for professionals. The A146 and A12 roads are nearby, linking Lowestoft to Beccles, Great Yarmouth, and beyond. Bus routes serve the village regularly, connecting it with the town centre and surrounding suburbs. For cyclists, the mostly flat terrain and expanding cycle infrastructure make it easy to get around without a car.

From the moment you arrive, the home’s kerb appeal is immediately evident. A beautifully maintained front garden, complemented by an ‘in and out’ driveway, offers effortless access, while a carport and a detached garage enhance both practicality and possibility.

The well-appointed kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring high-quality cabinetry, an integrated neff oven, an induction hob, a double oven, and easy-to-maintain Karndean flooring. A separate utility room offers practical space for laundry and extra storage, keeping the main living areas clutter-free and organised.
