Tucked away at the end of a quiet no-through road, this detached three-bedroom home in Mistley offers space, versatility, and a wonderfully private setting. Positioned on a corner plot with wrap-around gardens, the property enjoys an excellent sense of seclusion, whilst still being within easy reach of village amenities, local transport links, and the riverside walks that make this area so sought after.

The attractive frontage features a classic red brick exterior, diamond-leaded windows, and a tiled storm porch providing shelter over the entrance. The driveway comfortably accommodates off-street parking, with additional secure parking or storage space available in the attached garage. Mature planting and climbing ivy soften the boundary, while the corner position enhances both privacy and kerb appeal.

Inside, the home offers a generous and flowing ground floor layout. The spacious living and dining room stretches the full depth of the house, with soft neutral tones and large windows allowing natural light to fill the space. It's an ideal room for relaxing with family, hosting guests, or simply unwinding after a long day. The room connects seamlessly to both the kitchen and a bright, south-facing conservatory, which provides an additional reception space with garden views and direct access to the patio. With ample room for comfortable seating, the conservatory offers the perfect spot to enjoy the changing seasons or to retreat with a book.

The kitchen is practical, fitted with classic light wood units and bold splashbacks that add character to the space. There’s good storage and workspace, with easy access through to a second conservatory, which doubles as a utility area, hobby space, or garden room. From here, there’s direct access to the garden and the garage, adding to the practicality of the layout.

Upstairs, the first bedroom enjoys built-in triple-fronted wardrobes, and the benefit of a private ensuite shower room with an enclosed shower, pedestal basin, and fresh, neutral finishes. The second bedroom, a bright and inviting double, overlooks the rear garden and is perfect for guests or family, while the third bedroom offers a comfortable single, ideal as a child’s room, study, or dressing room. A main bathroom, currently adapted with a walk-in shower area and accessible features, provides flexibility for a wide range of needs and offers the potential to modernise to personal taste.

Outside, the rear garden wraps around the south and west aspects of the property, creating a peaceful, sun-trap retreat with multiple areas to enjoy. Primarily paved for ease of maintenance, there’s room for dining, entertaining, and relaxing, while mature shrubs, borders, and climbing plants add greenery and seasonal colour. A further seating area tucked to the side provides a private, sunny corner for a morning coffee or evening glass of wine, and a rear gate enhances practicality.
