3 bed bungalow for sale

Colneis Road, Felixstowe, Suffolk IP11

A rare opportunity to acquire a three-bedroom detached bungalow situated along a popular residential road in the sought-after seaside town of Felixstowe. The property has been extended over the years, offering spacious and versatile living accommodation throughout. Externally, the bungalow benefits from a substantial block-paved driveway providing ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, along with a single garage. A good-sized rear garden, which is a particular feature of the home, offers excellent outdoor space. Additional advantages include double-glazing, gas central heating, and a generous loft space presenting potential for conversion (subject to planning permission).

As agents, we recommend the earliest possible internal viewing to appreciate the quality of accommodation on offer which comprises an entrance lobby, entrance hall with walk-in pantry cupboard, refitted cloakroom, sitting room with wood burning stove, refitted kitchen/dining room, conservatory with replacement warm roof, inner hallway, refitted shower room, and three bedrooms.

Felixstowe is a much loved, traditional seaside resort known for its promenade and Blue Flag quality sand and shingle beach which have both been beautifully restored in 2017, perfectly kept seafront outside area with a new bandstand and water fountain offering ocean views, and a variety of seaside attractions. The pier has been brought back to life with a modern twist with eating areas, wine bars, outside seating all around the pier and, occasionally, live music. The beach huts in all their pretty glory have been given a new lease of life with their lovely neutral traditional seaside colours.

Felixstowe is also home to the UK’s largest, and Europe’s busiest, container port and the viewing area at Landguard offers great views of ships coming into the port and here too, are the Landguard Bird Observatory and Landguard Peninsular nature reserves. There is a foot and cycle ferry crossing between Felixstowe and Harwich.

North of the town centre is the fishing village of Old Felixstowe with its gallery, golf course and riverside inns. The area between Manor End and Cobbold’s Point is Felixstowe’s main seafront and can be explored along a two-mile-long promenade. The town itself has a wide range of shops, eateries, pubs, churches, parks, recreational facilities, a library and a railway station.
