Step Inside This Beautifully Unique Semi-Detached Home on West Mersea Island
Located on the sought-after West Mersea Island, this one-of-a-kind home offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and stylish modern touches Tucked away on a peaceful street, the property is full of warmth, character, and individuality
Outside & Garden
To the rear, a long private garden unfolds in three distinct sections. Flanked by fencing on either side, it feels secure and secluded-ideal for children, pets, or entertaining.
At the centre, a large pergola creates a stunning focal point, perfect for alfresco dining, summer gatherings, or simply relaxing with a good book.
Practical additions include a traditional outdoor WC and a substantial workshop shed (3.5m x 7.6m), currently used for woodworking and diy-a dream space for hobbyists or anyone needing extra storage. There’s also potential for off-street parking at the rear, should you wish to convert the garden/yard space.
The Kitchen
Enter through the rear porch, complete with charming black-and-white Victorian checkerboard tiles, into a stylish shaker-style kitchen Finished with a stainless steel sink, chrome handles, porcelain tiled flooring, and subtle spotlights, the space offers the perfect balance of character and practicality
The Living Spaces
The main living room exudes charm, with exposed beams, a feature chimney breast, and inviting alcoves Bathed in natural light, it feels both airy and welcoming-ideal for cosy nights in or family gatherings.
A second reception room currently serves as a bedroom but could easily be reimagined as a dining room or snug With a working open fire, painted exposed brick walls, original industrial switches, and an oak mantelpiece, the room offers an atmospheric blend of vintage and industrial style
Bedrooms & Bathroom
Upstairs, every corner of the home tells a story.
One bedroom features exposed brickwork, cinema-style industrial lighting, and white painted floorboards-a quirky retreat full of personality.
The Principal Bedroom is a calm sanctuary, decorated in soft blue-grey shiplap tones with black painted floorboards and elegant mood lighting From here, step into a truly exceptional bathroom, offering rustic luxury at its finest.
Indulge in a roll-top claw-foot bath, enjoy the bespoke timber shower cubicle, and admire the handcrafted stone wash basin with Victorian taps-a showpiece that blends old-world charm with artisan detail.
