Description

** Renovations on this stylish early Edwardian property began in 2017 and since then it has been expertly refurbished by a renowned local builder. Although strikingly modern in terms of fixtures and fittings, the property displays a wealth of homely and characterful features including a cast iron fireplace, large sash bay windows, exceptional ceiling height throughout and an impressive original staircase.

The layout of the ground floor is predominately open plan with a kitchen/dining area, sun room and large sitting room. A spacious hallway and shower room complete the ground floor accommodation. On the first floor are two spacious double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a very large landing which has been used as a study area with uninterrupted views of St Edmunds Green.

Externally Evelyn House has a small front garden enclosed by wrought iron fencing. The house has its own gated side entrance which leads to a good sized rear garden. A sandstone terrace flanks the back of the property giving direct access into the house via the double french doors. The remainder of the rear garden is laid to lawn with raised flower beds to the borders.

The well-known and popular town of Southwold offers excellent facilities including hotels, public houses, restaurants, a good range of shops including two supermarkets & a primary school. Iconic landmarks within the town include the lighthouse, which is on Stradbroke Road, and the pier. 

VIEWING Strictly by appointment with the agent's Southwold Office.

  • Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
  • Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
