Features and description
- Three Bedroom Semi Detached Cottage
- Potential To Extend
- Planning Permission Granted - Application No 211805
- Two Acres Of Land
- Rural Location
Positioned along the quiet and scenic Meeting Lane in East Mersea, this three-bedroom semi-detached cottage offers a rare chance to enjoy a peaceful rural lifestyle with the added benefit of two acres of land. Surrounded by open countryside and just a short distance from the coastline, the property combines character, charm and excellent potential, making it an ideal opportunity for those looking to create a bespoke country home.
The cottage features a traditional layout with three bedrooms, a cosy living room, a functional kitchen, and a family bathroom. The interiors, while dated, are full of potential and provide a solid foundation for modernisation and reconfiguration. With a little imagination and investment, the property could be transformed into a stylish and comfortable home that blends rural charm with modern living.
A significant advantage is the granted planning permission, which allows for the extension of the property. This gives prospective buyers the chance to increase the living space, rework the internal layout and add value. Whether you envision a large open-plan kitchen and dining area, a spacious master suite or additional reception rooms, the planning permission provides the flexibility to bring those ideas to life.
The grounds are a particular highlight, with approximately two acres of land offering an abundance of outdoor space. The setting is ideal for a range of uses, from gardening and smallholding to equestrian interests or simply enjoying the tranquility and privacy that the land provides. There is also potential to add outbuildings or a studio, subject to any further planning requirements.
The paddocks are subject to an overage agreement until 26 May 2051. The effect of this agreement is that there is a charge payable equivalent to 25% of any uplift in value on the 2 paddocks caused by the grant of planning permission.
(Water Troughs and Gates not included in the sale)
