Sitting proudly in an enviable position over looking the King George playing fields down to the river and railway station is this substantial individually bult home of some 3000 Sqft with flexible accommodation over two floors and lots of potential from its generous plot approaching 0.25 of an Acre. Offered with no onward chain and within a short stroll to the mainline station with fast links to London Liverpool street in just over the hour and the wonderful quayside and waterfront within easy reach also. At the heart of Lower Wivenhoe is its scenic quayside which offers stunning views across the Colne Estuary, the waterfront is dotted with pubs, cafes, and galleries, making it a pleasant place for a stroll or to watch the boats bobbing in the harbour. The local sailing club and marina contribute to a strong nautical spirit that continues to define the area which sits close to several nature reserves and walking trails, including the Wivenhoe Trail, which follows the river to Colchester. The area is a haven for birdwatchers and walkers, with salt marshes and estuary habitats nearby, though small, the town maintains a strong community ethos with events like the Wivenhoe Regatta, art trails, and farmers markets that celebrate both local talent and traditional roots. Its blend of village life, artistic vibrancy, and riverside tranquillity makes it a hidden gem on the Essex coast and its no wonder the Sunday Times has previously named it the best place to live in the East of England.

Located in what is a landmark building of Wivenhoe, formally the Park Hotel on the corner of Belle Vue Road and the High Street. This stunning and statuesque building which sits perfectly in the middle of the Town, has been designed to create a stylish and comfortable environment for staff and clients. In a move to create and embrace an ambiance of work and home style combined, we wanted our office to be welcoming and relaxed for customers and professional yet enjoyable for staff. When a customer recently commented that “I could live here”, we knew we had achieved our aim. The staff at our Wivenhoe Branch are all local and know the area through and through, they have children at local schools and friends and family living in the Town and the neighbouring villages. Their experience in property over the years means that we have a wealth of industry knowledge, teamed with a genuine care and warmth for the local community that they live and work in. Our aim is to passionately dedicate our time and experience into making the process of buying and selling not only a seamless process but an enjoyable journey. We want our office to become a part of the Town, a place where you can just pop in for a coffee and have a chat and not feel the pressure of a sales person. We are here to offer honest, local and genuine advice and assist our clients with a calm and professional approach.
