Rooms

Kitchen/Diner 2.99m x 5.48m (9ft 9in x 17ft 11in)
The ground floor is arranged as a bright, free-flowing kitchen diner, designed to balance everyday practicality with the warmth you expect from an eighteenth-century Georgian home. Natural oak boards run throughout, carrying light from the large sash windows that frame views towards the High Street. The dining area centres around a restored chimney breast housing a modern wood-burning stove, with original brickwork revealed inside the recess. Built-in cabinetry sits neatly in the alcoves, paired with deep display shelving and discreet cupboard storage. The kitchen was renovated in 2021 and uses handcrafted shaker cabinetry, quartz-style worktops and a ceramic butler sink set beneath the bay window. Integrated appliances, a gas hob, generous preparation space and an informal breakfast bar make the layout feel both sociable and efficient. Exposed beams, panelled walls and soft, neutral finishes keep the period character intact while offering a calm, modern backdrop for daily life.

Living Room 3.42m x 4.91m (11ft 2in x 16ft 1in)
The first floor is given over to a beautifully calm living room, a light-filled space with direct views across the Stour estuary from two deep-set sash windows. Original Georgian boards run underfoot, worn smooth over time, and exposed timber beams give a soft reminder of the home’s eighteenth-century framework. The fireplace forms a natural focal point, with a stripped pine surround and cast-iron inset, creating a warm centrepiece for the room. Built-in storage sits low beneath the windows, keeping the layout uncluttered while allowing the water views to take priority. The proportions are generous, with tall ceilings and pale wall finishes that amplify the natural light throughout the day. This floor sits above the kitchen level, giving a quieter, more elevated feel, ideal for evening relaxation or reading. With its blend of period texture, understated styling and ever-changing estuary backdrop, this room captures the house’s character at its most serene.

Bathroom 1.73m x 1.53m (5ft 8in x 5ft)
The first floor bathroom was renovated in 2017 and combines clean, modern fittings with gentle period character. A deep-set sash window brings in soft natural light and provides privacy with its frosted glazing, casting a calm atmosphere across the room. The bath is framed by a marble surround that continues onto the window ledge, giving generous space for toiletries and creating a refined, hotel-style finish. Wall-mounted storage runs the full length above the basin, offering practical mirrored cabinetry without intruding on the room’s proportions. A compact, wall-hung basin and contemporary chrome fittings keep the space streamlined, while painted timber panelling and warm exposed floorboards add texture consistent with the wider Georgian framework of the house. A tall heated towel rail sits opposite the bath for comfort, and ventilation is built discreetly into the upper wall.

Second floor stairwell
Half landing window and staircase with a turn up to the second floor open landing / study and bedroom.

Landing (Second floor)
The top-floor landing has been designed as a practical and inviting study space, making clever use of the eaves with a built-in dormer window that brings in excellent natural light. White-painted timber boarding wraps the recess, creating a bright alcove for a desk and chair, ideal for home working or a quiet reading corner. The window shutters offer adjustable privacy while maintaining airflow, and the elevated position gives a gentle sense of retreat from the main living areas below. The landing itself feels wider than expected for a Georgian home, with space for shelving and useful wall-mounted organisation. Soft neutral décor and woven flooring tie this level to the calm aesthetic found throughout the house. This area leads directly into the second floor bedroom.

Bedroom (Second floor) 3.97m x 3.78m (13ft x 12ft 4in)
This top-floor bedroom sits beneath the gentle pitch of the Georgian roofline, giving the room an intimate, loft-like feel while still offering surprising width and usable floor space. Two deep-set dormer windows with plantation shutters bring in excellent natural light from opposite sides, with the one at the rear offering a stunning Stour Estuary vista. Painted timber boarding lines the reveals, adding a coastal softness that suits the estuary setting. Built-in cupboards are neatly integrated into the eaves, providing valuable storage without interrupting the shape of the room. A decorative cast-iron fireplace adds a subtle period note and anchors the space visually. There is room for a full-size bed alongside seating or dressing furniture, making this an ideal guest bedroom or quiet retreat away from the main living areas. The elevated position enhances privacy and gives this floor a peaceful, tucked-away character.

Hallway (Basement)
Connecting to the basement bedroom with its ensuite, the rear garden through a glazed timber panelled door, having carpeted stairs that rise to the ground floor.

Bedroom (Basement) 3.62m x 4.53m (11ft 10in x 14ft 10in)
The lower-ground bedroom is a generous, quietly private space with direct access to the garden through a pair of full-height glazed doors that bring in excellent natural light. Its scale and ceiling height are unusually strong for a basement level, emphasised by the clean white panelling and exposed timber beams that showcase the home’s Georgian structure. Built-in wardrobes run the full length of one wall, providing extensive storage and a useful recessed shelf for books and lighting. The room’s character comes through in the blend of original brickwork, lime-washed beams and soft, neutral décor, creating a calm, cocooned feel. This room was previously used as a spare bedroom/den. The bed (super king) could be replaced with a sofa bed for summer living. Practical features include central heating, good ventilation and direct step-free access to the bathroom on this level. The French doors open to the rear garden.

Ensuite bathroom (Basement)
Serving the lower-ground bedroom, this ensuite has a calm, understated aesthetic built around soft whites and natural textures. A full-sized bath with overhead shower sits beneath a tiled surround, keeping the layout practical for daily use. The wide countertop is finished with a marble-style surface and incorporates generous under-counter storage, with the basin set neatly into the run. A large oval mirror adds warmth and reflects light around the room, helping to counter the natural limitations of basement levels. A standout feature is the exposed timber staircase structure overhead, revealing the age and fabric of the original Georgian build while adding sculptural interest. Frosted windows draw in diffused daylight and ensure privacy. The layout also incorporates a concealed utility area with space for laundry appliances and linen storage, ideal for keeping the bedroom free of clutter. A heated towel rail and modern fittings complete the space.

Office 2.29m x 3.29m (7ft 6in x 10ft 9in)
Accessed through a traditional stable door, the garden office is a peaceful, self-contained workspace ideal for creative projects or remote working. The interior has a bright, airy feel thanks to painted brick walls, white timber boarding and exposed beams that reflect the building’s original character. Long fitted workbenches run across two walls, providing generous desk space for multiple setups, supported by built-in shelving and cupboards that keep the room organised and clutter-free. The studio sits slightly apart from the main house, creating a quiet zone for focused work while still being just a few steps from the bedroom and garden. With power, storage, and a calm aesthetic, it offers far more flexibility than typical outbuildings, functioning equally well as a workshop, hobby room or compact creative studio.

Front Garden

Garden
The rear garden is a sheltered, unexpectedly private space arranged along a gently stepped pathway of old paving stones that lead from the basement bedroom to the garden studio. Enclosed by historic brick walls softened by established planting, the garden has a quietly mature feel, with evergreen structure balanced by seasonal interest. Loquat and fig trees provide height and dappled shade, echoing the Mediterranean character of the front, while deep borders are filled with perennials and climbers that thrive in this protected microclimate. There are several points to pause and sit, including a paved dining area beside the studio, ideal for warm-weather meals or morning coffee. Pots and planters line the approach, adding colour and flexibility without compromising space. The garden is low maintenance and gets sun all day in the summer.
