Summary - BLEW HOUSE COTTAGE BARLING ROAD GREAT WAKERING SOUTHEND-ON-SEA SS3 0ND
3 bed 2 bath Link Detached House
Thatched studio, walled gardens and farmland views ideal for family entertaining.
Grade II listed Chocolate Box period cottage with rich historic character
Set within a prestigious semi-rural setting, this Grade II listed three-bedroom link-detached cottage combines historic charm with practical family living. The main house offers three exceptionally spacious reception rooms, a hand-painted in-frame Aga farmhouse kitchen/breakfast room, two inglenook fireplaces with cast-iron stoves, and an impressive four-piece Victorian-style family bathroom with bespoke cabinetry.
Outside, a secluded, walled and landscaped rear garden provides multiple entertaining areas alongside a cobbled carriage driveway with motorised gated entry, detached garage, log store and a detached thatched studio/annexe — ideal for guests, home office or creative use. The plot is large and benefits from panoramic farmland views and fast broadband, while comprehensive CCTV and alarm systems are already fitted for added security.
Practical points to note: the property’s Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate some modernisation or extension works. The semi-rural, hamlet location offers peace and excellent local schools nearby but can feel isolated for some daily commutes. Overall, the home suits a family or buyer seeking distinctive period character with sizeable private grounds and clear scope to personalise within listed constraints.
