62 Tomline Road is on the market with Scott Beckett Estate Agents and boasts an elegant Victorian frontage, a number of original features and an elevated position allowing for incredible views of Felixstowe's seafront, which is just a three-minute walk away.
The five-bedroom property’s original, part-glazed front door opens into the entrance porch with Amtico flooring and the reception hallway, which provides access to the ground-floor reception rooms.
The kitchen/family room is the heart of the home. Described by Scott Beckett as “a magnificent feature room”, it has been refitted and with a modern finish whilst retaining its impressive vaulted ceiling.
The stylish units with quartz work surfaces are complemented by a central island, an integrated wine cooler and an imported Brazilian stone breakfast bar/worktop above.
A range of built-in and integrated Neff appliances are also included, such as a six-zone induction hob, two matching double ovens, a hinged extractor hood, integrated dishwasher, full-size refrigerator and full-size freezer.
There is also a Franke instant boiling hot water tap and UPVC double-glazed French doors leading to the outside.
An adjoining breakfast room and utility with space for a tumble dryer make this a perfect space for people who love to cook and entertain.
The main sitting room benefits from a cosy bay window with sea views to the front aspect and a Stovas inset gas fire set in a hand-cut natural stone fireplace with hearth, while the large dining room has a feature Italian stone fireplace with an inset log-burning stove inset.
The ground floor is completed by a study with Karndean flooring and a bay window, and a rear cloakroom with low-level WC and wash hand basin with mixer tap.
A set of stairs in the inner hallway provides access into the cellar, which is mainly used for storage, while another staircase in the main hall takes you up to the first floor, where you’ll find a spacious, open-plan landing area with two arched features.
The three bedrooms on this floor include the master bedroom, which features an original fireplace with surround and UPVC double-glazed French doors opening onto a covered balcony with Victorian railings, tiled decking and incredible sea views.
The master’s dressing room with a shelved storage cupboard and bay window was previously a bedroom. Scott Beckett notes that this could be easily converted back if required as the original doors remain.
Bedroom two also features an original fireplace and fitted wardrobes, and the main family bathroom which serves the first floor has been refitted. It features tiled walls, an ornamental fireplace, oak-style laminate flooring and a built-in airing cupboard.
Fixtures include a freestanding, roll-edged bath with side mixer taps, a separate shower cubicle with rainforest-style showerhead plus an additional hose side spray, and a Heritage wash hand basin set within a unit with storage cupboards underneath.
There is a separate WC accessed via the landing.
Bedrooms four and five are located on the second floor, both with ornamental fireplaces and sea views. Bedroom five also benefits from an adjoining dressing room/study.
The second-floor bathroom comprises a panelled bath with mixer taps and shower attachment, separate shower cubicle with wall mounted Mira shower, low-level WC, wash hand basin and a built-in airing cupboard with slatted shelving.
Outside, 62 Tomline Road’s front garden is enclosed by fencing, railings and laurel hedging. It is mainly block-paved providing off-street parking for several vehicles. A gate allows side access to the rear garden.
The neat, landscaped rear garden is enclosed by wall and fencing and is mainly laid to lawn, with a patio/terrace to the side and a covered hot tub to one corner.
The newly constructed cedar room within the garden has been designed as additional living and entertaining space. It is fully insulated with plastered walls and ceilings, recessed LED spotlights and laminate flooring.
Heating is supplied in the form of low energy electric panel heaters, and the building is wired for high-speed internet access.
A fully fitted bar with shelving, triple-width wine fridge and concealed provision for a wall-mounted television make the cedar room a ready-made accommodation or entertaining space for year-round use.
An additional outbuilding takes the form of a log cabin with a pitched roof, light and power, offering an additional garden room or storage.
