Goldfinch, Leiston

The space

The private entrance is off the high street with a little gate and path leading to the front door which opens into a hall with carpeted stairs (and handrail) rising to the first-floor landing. Doors off the landing to all four rooms and there’s hard flooring throughout with attractive rugs. We feel that, as the bed is a standard double, and the cooking facilities are limited, the flat is more suited to a single guest.

KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM
A well-designed room, ideal for enjoying light meals and/or takeaways at home. There’s a table (could double up as a desk) and chairs, and kitchen units running along one wall housing an under-counter fridge (with ice compartment), a microwave, a kettle and a Nespresso machine which takes standard sized pods. Please note there isn't an oven.

LIVING ROOM
Simple and stylish – ideal for relaxing in after a long day - furnished with a coffee table, a TV sitting on the chest of drawers, and additional storage in a wardrobe if you need it.

BEDROOM
The double bed takes pride of place between bedside drawers and there’s additional storage in a wardrobe, plus a little corner chair.

SHOWER ROOM
This modern shower room has a large shower cubicle with a hand-held electric shower, a WC, wash basin with storage beneath it, a heated towel rail (towels will be supplied), and natural light.

OUTSIDE
There's an allocated parking space in the main gravelled driveway with a very short walk round the corner to the gate on the high street which opens to the path and door exclusively to Goldfinch. The apartment is an annex to the main house so please respect the owner in terms of noise and they will certainly respect your privacy.
Leistoin is a 'working town' with an independent cinema, great park for kids, a leisure centre with swimming pool and gym, and it's just a short drive to the sea at Sizewell, the magical village of Thorpeness with its boating pond; and the colourful seaside town of Aldeburgh with some great restaurants, shops etc.
