Positioned in one of Frinton-on-Sea’s most desirable residential settings, Thorpe Villa is a five-bedroom 100-year-old, detached home just 200yds from the beach offering charm, safety, community and seaside life.

Swap congestion for sea-side calm, enjoy a slower pace without isolation and benefit from a coastal lifestyle upgrade. This fabulous Edwardian house, full of character, features a modern open-plan kitchen diner, large utility room, a living room, four first floor bedrooms surrounding a family bathroom and a principal bedroom with en-suite in the loft conversion. There is also driveway parking for two cars, a garage, a huge rear un-overlooked garden with two adjoining brick-built sheds, a workshop, a greenhouse and a garden office.

The entrance hallway, with its picture and dado rails, gives access to the kitchen/diner and living room. The recently designed and upgraded kitchen has all Siemens appliances, a full-size integrated fridge and freezer, a double oven, with the top oven also a microwave - plus warming drawer, two dishwashers, a Blanco boiling tap, a plethora of built-in units and a breakfast bar. The dining area, with its own built-in units, can house a large dining table and sits in front of a generous bay window to the front. Off the kitchen is the utility room with sink, plumbing for white goods, a cloakroom and a door to the rear garden.

The cosy living room has patio doors to the garden plus a fireplace with hearth and mantlepiece.

To the first floor... Where there are four bedrooms - three double and one single (currently used as an office) - and the remodelled family bathroom. It's on this floor that you really notice the sizes of the bay windows in the house. The third bedroom has a double-glazed door to the balcony at the front.

On the second floor is where the converted loft brings a principal double bedroom with dual aspect windows and an its own ensuite.

Overall, the home brings space and light across all areas of the house, yet there is scope to make it even larger with an opportunity to extend (subject to planning permission) at the rear and side.

The rear garden extends some 130 feet from the house. It's mainly laid to lawn, with patio areas and established borders. At the bottom of the plot is the garden office which is well insulated (cool in summer and warm in winter) and has sockets and lights. To the front a gravelled drive provides parking for two cars, and the rest is laid to lawn with shrubbery borders.
