Compact, characterful 2/3-bed home with south-facing roof terrace in Old Harwich.
Grade II listed character townhouse with exposed beams
A compact Grade II listed townhouse in the heart of Old Harwich, this character property packs original beams, exposed brickwork and a generous lounge with a working log burner into an efficient three-floor layout. The home offers two upper bedrooms with fitted wardrobes plus a flexible ground-floor room suitable as a bedroom or study, a fitted kitchen/diner and a south-facing roof terrace plus a rear courtyard.
This is a good opportunity for a first-time buyer seeking period character and central convenience — the property is freehold and offered with no onward chain. The layout and features promise immediate charm and comfortable living, while the cellar/ground-floor lobby provides practical storage and laundry plumbing.
Buyers should note material constraints: Grade II listing will restrict alterations and can complicate repairs or conversions. The overall internal size is small (approximately 369 sq ft) so space is compact. The wider area is economically challenged and local crime is above average — factors that may affect future resale or lettability. There is an option (additional cost) to purchase the ground-floor commercial space separately, which could appeal to an investor or owner-occupier seeking rental income or ancillary use.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and low flood risk. A virtual tour is available to assess space before viewing; interested buyers should budget for sensitive, listed-property maintenance and check permissions before planning changes.
