Summary - 20 FLAT 1A MARKET STREET HARWICH CO12 3DY
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Restored four-bedroom residence moments from beach, pier and station.
Grade II listed with strong period features and high ceilings
A striking Grade II listed home in Old Harwich, this restored four-bedroom semi combines Georgian character with comfortable modern living. High ceilings, exposed beams, sash windows and a feature fireplace create impressive living spaces, while a bespoke Captain’s-style kitchen with marble worktops and a double-height lounge/diner provide room for family life and entertaining. The master bedroom includes a private en suite; a generous family bathroom serves the remaining three double bedrooms.
Practical benefits include a private cobbled courtyard and a double garage for storage or parking, gas central heating with radiators, double glazing and an average internal size of about 1,305 sq ft. The property is chain free and within easy walking distance of the beach, pier, town centre and train station, making daily commuting and coastal leisure straightforward.
Important considerations are presented plainly: the listed status protects historic features but will make external or structural alteration more difficult and possibly costlier. The building’s solid brick construction means little or no cavity insulation was installed originally, so buyers should consider potential retrofit costs if improved thermal performance is desired. The plot is small and outdoor space is a private courtyard rather than a large garden.
The local context is mixed — excellent mobile signal and convenient amenities nearby, but the area shows higher-than-average crime and significant deprivation indices. This home will suit buyers who value period character, location and ready-to-live-in accommodation, and who are comfortable with the limitations and responsibilities of owning a listed property in a compact town-centre plot.
