This three-bedroom end-of-terrace house sits in the heart of West Mersea, a short walk from cafes, shops and well-regarded primary schools. Recent mechanical updates include a boiler installed in 2024, and a program of cosmetic improvements is scheduled for August 2025: new flooring throughout, new decoration and a new kitchen to be fitted, so the house will arrive refreshed and move-in ready.
Ground floor living is flexible, with a living room, separate dining room, semi open-plan kitchen/dining area, utility room and a ground-floor cloakroom. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, offering a straightforward family layout across roughly 1,009 sq ft. The property is freehold and sits as an end unit, giving useful side access and a larger-than-typical front/side garden for this terrace run.
There are some practical points to note. Broadband speeds in the area are slow, which may affect home working or streaming without upgrades. The garden and boundary walls will benefit from tidying and landscaping. Construction dates suggest the house was built in the 1950–66 era and cavity walls are assumed to lack added insulation, so further energy-efficiency improvements could be worthwhile.
Overall, this is a well-located, newly refreshed family home with immediate habitation benefits from the recent boiler and forthcoming interior works, plus straightforward potential to add value through external and energy-efficiency improvements. It will suit buyers seeking a village-centre property close to schools and local amenities.
