PROPERTY
'Wavecrest' is a three-bedroom detached chalet style bungalow in the popular coastal location of Mersea Island to the South of Colchester and the East of Chelmsford.

A porch welcomes you to the property, providing a useful space for the storage of coats and shoes. The entrance hallway provides access to the sitting room to the front of the property that features a cosy log burner.

The heart of the home is the kitchen / dining / family room to the rear. The kitchen area features an integrated dishwasher, hob and accompanying extractor hood, integrated oven, microwave oven and fridge-freezer.

Ample storage is provided by a good array of cupboards and drawers all set within an attractive wood work top that sweeps round to form a breakfast bar. The family area provides a more formal dining space and views of the garden can be enjoyed through the bi-fold doors to the patio.

This flexible family space also benefits from a built-in sound system, projector, and retractable projection screen, ideal for film nights, and that will remain in-situ once the property has been sold.

The utility room to the side of the kitchen provides additional workspace and storage as well as containing space and plumbing for a washing machine, there is also a further integrated oven and integrated fridge.

The main bedroom is located on the ground floor and benefits from built-in wardrobe and storage space. There is a separate accompanying shower room with hand basin, and separate ground floor cloakroom.

At the foot of the stairs, the present owners have cleverly utilised this area as work from home study space with built in desk and storage, and this completes the ground floor accommodation.

Ascending the stairs to the first floor, there are two further bedrooms.

The bedroom to the front of the property is used as a music room, and the spare guest double to the rear (with built in wardrobe space).

The first floor also contains a shower room with shower cubicle, handbasin, toilet and heated towel rail.

Across the first floor the present vendors have maximised the available storage space by clever utilisation of storage within the eaves of the building.

 

OUTSIDE

To the front of the property there is off-road parking for several vehicles on a gravelled driveway.

The driveway extends along the side of the property, behind a gated entrance, to the garage at the rear. The garage has power and lighting supplied as does the workshop to the rear of the garage.

The garden is mainly laid to lawn and features a large patio adjacent to the bi-fold doors that lead out from the kitchen / dining / family room. 

SITUATION

Mersea Island is an affluent thriving coastal settlement at the mouth of the Blackwater Estuary. The island has a well-regarded primary school, as well as excellent public transport links to the City of Colchester, with its outstanding choice of both highly sought after grammar and private secondary schooling options.

Mersea Island is renowned for its wide variety of seafood establishments, as well as the broad range of sailing facilities including the yacht club. The picturesque beaches at both West and East Mersea, as well as the idyllic sea wall that surrounds the majority of the island offer a beautiful vista of the Black Water Estuary.

A full range of shops and amenities can be found in the village centre at West Mersea, including both Co-Op and Tesco supermarkets, doctors' surgery, dentists, several pharmacies and of course a wide choice of public houses, independent coffee shops, tea rooms and restaurants.
