About this property

A fantastic opportunity to acquire a detached property with no onward chain, in the ever-popular Point Clear Bay area, enjoying views towards Mersea and offering huge potential for modernisation and improvement.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and, as shown on the floorplan, provides a versatile layout that would suit a variety of buyers. The first floor currently comprises a generous living room positioned to make the most of the outlook, alongside a separate kitchen and a bedroom, with scope to reconfigure and enhance the space to create a more contemporary open-plan arrangement if desired. The ground floor offers an extensive area currently arranged as garages, storage and ancillary space, presenting a blank canvas for conversion subject to the necessary consents. This level could be transformed into additional living accommodation, further bedrooms or a self-contained area, depending on requirements.

Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking and a garden, providing outside space to enjoy or further develop. The overall plot and layout lend themselves well to those looking for a project, whether as a permanent residence, holiday home or investment.

Point Clear Bay is a sought-after coastal location known for its peaceful surroundings, waterfront walks and beautiful views across the estuary towards Mersea Island. The area offers a relaxed lifestyle with access to sailing, beaches and open countryside, while still being within easy reach of nearby Brightlingsea, which provides a range of local amenities including shops, cafes, restaurants and schooling. For more extensive facilities, Colchester is a short drive away, offering a wider selection of retail, leisure and mainline rail services to London Liverpool Street, making the property an attractive option for commuters and those seeking a balance between coastal living and convenience.

Offered with no onward chain, this is a rare chance to secure a property in a desirable waterside location with considerable scope to add value and create a bespoke home.
