Welcome to your potential new home on Harwich Road, Little Oakley, CO12.
This charming semi-detached house, boasting two double bedrooms, offers a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and rural charm. The property is ideally suited for families or individuals seeking a serene lifestyle in an area of outstanding natural beauty yet still connected to local modern amenities. The home offers the opportunity to extend or be remodelled to your growing needs subject to planning / building regulations as required.
The heart of the home is the truly spacious living and dining area. This dual-aspect room is filled with natural light, thanks to its characteristic large windows on both the front and side elevations. It features a striking brick fireplace with a log-burning stove, adding a cosy ambiance during the colder months. The room also includes excellent storage solutions via a large cupboard and a full-height double-fronted airing cupboard.
The kitchen is well-appointed with white matte fronted soft-closing cupboards and drawers, a wood roll top work surface, and matching eye-level cabinets. It comes equipped with a Lamona electric oven, a four-ring electric hob, and a stainless steel 1.5 bowl sink with a mixer tap. The kitchen window provides a lovely view of the rear garden, making meal preparation a pleasant experience.
An inner hallway connects the kitchen to the ground floor bathroom and the conservatory. The bathroom is fitted with a panel bath, a pedestal hand wash basin, and a WC, with two fully tiled elevations and an opaque glazed window for privacy.
Upstairs, the first bedroom is generously proportioned, with a large window to the front elevation and wood laminate flooring. A spacious cupboard over the stairs adds extra storage here. The second double bedroom, also with wood laminate flooring, offers stunning views of the garden, farmland beyond, and the sea on the horizon.
The first floor also features a large family bathroom, converted from a former third bedroom. This well-sized bathroom includes a panel bath, a pedestal hand wash basin, and a WC, with a window capturing elevated views of the surrounding natural beauty.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The predominantly south-facing rear garden, just over 100 feet in length, is a standout feature. It begins with a patio area and extends into a lawn with established shrub borders and six-foot panel fencing. The hedgerow at the rear boundary is trimmed to allow uninterrupted views of the farmland and the sea beyond. At the front, the property offers off-street parking for three vehicles side by side on a block-pressed paved area.
For those with hobbies or needing additional storage, the workshop, previously a garage, comes with a remote up-and-over door and a personal door to the rear. There's also a storage cupboard under the stairs accessible from the outside.
This property offers the perfect opportunity to enjoy the tranquillity of a semi-rural lifestyle without sacrificing modern conveniences. The potential to extend or remodel, subject to planning and building regulations, adds an exciting prospect for future growth.
