Set on a large plot in Harwich, this mock-Tudor detached house combines 1930s character with expansive sea views a short walk from Dovercourt’s Blue Flag beach. The ground floor offers an L-shaped reception room that opens onto raised decking, a separate sitting room with original bay window and fireplace, and a practical kitchen. A virtual tour is available for an immediate walkthrough.
The property has four bedrooms and a single family bathroom on the ground floor, served by mains gas central heating and double glazing. A substantial cellar provides four to five additional rooms and clear potential for conversion into living space, subject to planning consent. Garage and off-road parking add convenience for families.
Buyers should note the house was built c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation, so upgrading thermal performance may be needed. There is only one bathroom for four bedrooms, and the cellar conversion will require planning and likely investment to meet current standards. The area shows higher deprivation indicators despite good local schools and fast broadband.
Overall, this is a spacious, characterful family home in a seaside location with notable extension potential. It will suit buyers wanting period features and coastal access who are prepared to carry out sensible improvements to insulation, facilities and any cellar works.
