Set along Third Avenue in Harwich, this much cared for Edwardian end-terrace home combines period character with a practical layout that works well for modern living. From the street the house immediately stands out thanks to its attractive frontage, with a bay window and arched doorway framed by a low brick wall and traditional wrought-iron gate. A patterned tiled path leads to the entrance, hinting at the character that continues inside.
A small vestibule opens into the entrance hall where the layout begins to unfold. From here, French doors lead through to the main reception room at the front of the house. This is a welcoming and characterful space, centred around a wood-burning stove set within a recessed fireplace with timber mantel and brick hearth. The front bay window draws in natural light while the room’s proportions leave flexibility for sofas, occasional furniture or even a small dining arrangement if desired. Decorative ceiling detailing adds another reminder of the home’s Edwardian origins.
To the rear of the ground floor sits the kitchen, fitted with modern units arranged in a practical U-shaped layout. Generous work surfaces and integrated appliances make it a functional workspace, while the window above the sink brings natural light into the room. From here the house connects naturally to the garden, with a side door leading outside and access through to a separate studio space beyond.
Positioned just off the rear of the kitchen, the additional garden room provides a versatile extension to the living accommodation. Currently used as a studio and storage area, it offers a useful degree of separation from the main house and would suit a variety of roles such as a home office, hobby space, or quiet retreat with direct French door access to the garden.
Upstairs, the first floor landing links the two principal bedrooms and the family bathroom, while also giving access to a staircase that continues up into the attic room above.
Both bedrooms on the first floor are comfortable doubles. The rear bedroom enjoys a quiet outlook over the garden and retains a decorative cast-iron fireplace, while the front bedroom benefits from a large window bringing in plenty of natural light and features a recessed chimney breast that adds character in keeping with the age of the house.
The bathroom is notably generous in size for a property of this type, providing ample space around the bath, wash basin and WC. White tiling around the bath area and a window for natural light and ventilation help create a bright and practical space.
A further staircase leads to the attic room within the roof. This is a particularly characterful part of the house, with exposed timber beams, sloping ceilings and a rooflight bringing daylight into the centre of the room. The space is currently used as a bedroom and offers a variety of possibilities including guest accommodation, workspace or hobby room, with useful eaves storage built into the layout. Buyers should make their own enquiries regarding building regulation compliance for formal bedroom use.
Outside, the rear garden has been arranged with practicality and ease of maintenance in mind. A paved pathway runs through the centre, bordered by planting beds that bring seasonal interest and greenery to the space. Patio areas provide room for outdoor seating, while fencing to both sides creates a defined and private setting. A timber shed at the far end offers useful storage for tools and garden equipment.
Altogether the home provides a thoughtful blend of character, usable space and flexibility. With its bay-fronted Edwardian façade, practical living areas and adaptable loft and studio spaces, it offers more versatility than many homes of this type while remaining comfortable and easy to live in.

Attic room / loft room 4.68m x 3.36m (15ft 4in x 11ft)

Currently arranged as a studio and storage area, it would adapt easily to a variety of uses including a home office, hobby room, fitness space or quiet retreat away from the main house. The separation from the principal living accommodation gives the room a useful degree of privacy while still keeping it closely connected to the garden and day-to-day living areas.
Front Garden
The property is set behind a traditional low brick wall with wrought-iron gate, creating an attractive and clearly defined frontage to the street. A patterned tiled pathway leads to the front door, while the bay window and arched doorway detailing give the house strong kerb appeal typical of homes from this period. A small planted area softens the frontage and adds a touch of greenery without creating high maintenance. Pedestrian access at the side leads to gated rear garden access.
Garden
The rear garden is arranged for both practicality and ease of maintenance, with a central paved pathway and patio areas providing space for seating and outdoor dining. Raised planting beds and borders introduce greenery and seasonal interest, while fencing to both sides helps create a defined and private outdoor space. A timber garden shed sits at the far end of the plot, providing useful storage for tools and equipment. The garden also connects directly to the external studio room via French doors, creating a natural link between indoor and outdoor living.
