A three-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace within easy walking distance of Harwich/Dovercourt seafront and town centre. The house is chain-free and freehold, offering straightforward purchase for buyers wanting proximity to beaches, shops and rail links.
Internally the layout includes a lounge with bay window and dining area, kitchen and first-floor bathroom across approximately 787 sq ft. The property retains period character—bay window, fireplace and high ceilings—but requires renovation throughout, so it suits someone prepared to update finishes and services.
Practical strengths include double glazing installed post-2002, mains gas central heating, small rear garden and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. There is no flooding risk and local primary and secondary schools are rated Good, which is helpful for families.
Notable drawbacks are the property’s small overall size and the need for cosmetic and likely deeper refurbishment (insulation appears absent in solid brick walls). The area scores as relatively deprived and crime is average; buyers should budget for renovation costs and possible upgrading of insulation and services.
