Summary - West Mersea CO5 8BL
4 bed 2 bath Detached
High-spec four-bedroom home with large gardens and garage, steps from the beach.
Short walk to the beach and coastal amenities
A substantial, recently built detached home positioned on a premier tree-lined road just a short walk from West Mersea’s beach. The house offers four double bedrooms, two en suites and an expansive open-plan kitchen/dining/day room with bi-fold doors that connect directly to large, private rear gardens — ideal for family living and summer entertaining. Ground-floor underfloor heating adds comfort to the main living areas, bathrooms and en suites.
Set on approximately 0.2 acres, the plot includes a generous terrace with an electric retractable awning, gated side access, mature planting and off-street parking for several cars plus a single garage. Constructed in 2020 to a high specification, the property benefits from the remainder of the LABC guarantee and double glazing throughout, making it largely move-in ready for busy households.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, so streaming, remote working or multiple smart devices may require a specialist provider or upgraded connection. Council Tax is band G, reflecting higher running costs. Overall, the house presents strong family appeal — excellent local schools, low crime, easy access to village amenities and seaside recreation — but buyers should budget for ongoing utilities and any bespoke connectivity upgrades.
This home suits families seeking contemporary coastal living with space to grow, outdoor entertaining potential and reliable construction warranties. With flexible reception rooms including a study and utility, it will work well for homeworking, children and social gatherings while remaining close to local shops, schools and transport links into Colchester.
