This handsome period house on Thorpe Road has been comprehensively refurbished to blend original character with contemporary comfort. The restored reception rooms keep period features — fireplaces, box bay windows and herringbone floors — while a bespoke Shaker kitchen with central island becomes the home’s lively heart. Practical upgrades include a full rewire, new combination boiler and a fitted utility room.
Arranged over multiple floors, the property offers flexible accommodation: a principal bedroom with en-suite, four further bedrooms (one currently a dressing room) and a generous reception room that opens to a south-facing landscaped garden. Off-street parking for several cars and a double-width garage with electric roller door add significant convenience for families and commuters.
Location is a strong selling point — walking distance to Kirby Cross rail station and a short drive to Frinton-on-Sea, with good local schools and low local crime. The home is chain-free and freehold, ready for immediate occupation or to be tailored further by a buyer wanting additional modern finishes.
Important considerations: the plot is relatively small for a detached house, so outdoor space is compact despite thoughtful landscaping. The house has two bathrooms to serve five bedrooms, which could be limiting for larger households without adaptation. Overall size is average for the area, so buyers seeking very large rooms or extensive grounds should note these constraints.
