Dating in part to the 16th century, this Grade II listed terraced house in Old Harwich offers characterful living close to the harbour and local amenities. Exposed beams, traditional fireplaces and sash windows give an authentic historic feel across two reception rooms, a study, cellar and three bedrooms. The compact courtyard garden provides private outdoor space in the town centre.
The location is a strong practical selling point: Harwich Town Station is within easy reach for commuting, and a wide range of shops, cafés, pubs and the waterfront are on the doorstep. The house has a large overall footprint (approximately 1,496 sq ft) and flexible rooms that suit family living or a couple wanting extra study and reception space.
Buyers should note the property’s Grade II listed status — this preserves historic features but will restrict alterations and may increase maintenance or repair costs. The plot is small and there is no mention of off-street parking. Local indicators show above-average crime and a high level of area deprivation, which may influence longer-term resale or rental prospects despite the town-centre location.
This home suits purchasers who value period character, proximity to transport and the waterfront, and who are comfortable with conservation-area responsibilities. It could also appeal to buyers seeking a residence with scope for sensitive improvement while retaining historic features.
