A contemporary detached home with fantastic views towards Southwold is for sale in Reydon at a guide price of £1.395 million.

Dating from the 1960s, Brooklands is a striking four-bedroom house with a largely timber-clad façade and pantiled roof.

Selling agent Savills said the current owners have substantially extended and modernised the property to an exceptional standard, creating “a spacious, light-filled and remarkably comfortable family home”.

A stunning open-plan kitchen and living area dominates the ground floor.

The kitchen has oak work surfaces, a butler-style double sink, integrated double oven and gas hob, plus a large island with a breakfast bar. It flows through to a dining and living area, with bi-folding doors out to the terrace.

Alongside the kitchen is a large reception room – also with glazed sliding doors to the south-facing terrace. This space is currently used as a studio but has potential for various uses.

Southwold itself is famous for its painted beach huts, long sandy beaches, 19th century lighthouse and pier. It has a great selection of boutique shops, cafés, restaurants and pubs, and a twice-weekly market in the market square.

The town is also home to the Adnams brewery, which offers daily tours.
