This remarkable home offers the rare and enviable feature of an integral private boathouse, seamlessly connecting the property to the beach, making it the ideal haven for sailing enthusiasts, water sports lovers, or those seeking a tranquil coastal retreat.

This architectural gem boasts over 2,000 square feet of meticulously designed living space, spread across three expansive floors, offering a seamless blend of luxury, comfort, and coastal charm. With most rooms benefiting from breath taking, uninterrupted panoramic views of the sparkling coastline, this property truly encapsulates the essence of beachfront living.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by an impressive reception hall, exuding a sense of grandeur and elegance. The ground floor hosts a range of versatile living spaces, including a spacious dining and family room, ideal for both formal gatherings and relaxed living. The adjacent modern fitted kitchen features a range cooker, and a functional layout, perfect for entertaining or family meals. The adjoining utility room provides practical convenience, while the elegant living room invites relaxation with its generous proportions and stunning views.

A standout feature of the home is the glazed conservatory at the front, bathed in natural light and designed to maximize the spectacular sea views. Twin French doors lead from the conservatory onto a large raised garden terrace, offering a prime spot to soak in the scenery, from sunrises to sunsets, while enjoying the fresh coastal air. This garden is the perfect setting for al fresco dining, summer barbecues, or simply unwinding with a good book while listening to the gentle sounds of the waves.

Ascending to the first floor, you will find three generously proportioned double bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed to maximise space. Two of the bedrooms open onto a fabulous curved balcony that overlooks the beachfront, providing a peaceful oasis to enjoy morning coffee while admiring the horizon. The master bedroom is complemented by a sizeable en-suite bathroom, complete with contemporary fixtures and finishes, while the other bedrooms share a luxurious four-piece family bathroom.

The second floor is home to the fourth double bedroom, a spacious retreat offering privacy and tranquillity. This room also boasts its own front-facing balcony, offering yet another stunning vantage point to enjoy the sweeping coastal views. Whether used as a guest suite, a luxurious master bedroom, or even a home office, this space offers flexibility and charm.

Outside, this one-of-a-kind property continues to impress. A private driveway leads to a double garage, providing ample space for parking and storage. The raised front garden, overlooking the beach, is the perfect extension of the home’s indoor spaces, designed to allow for seamless interaction between the house and the natural surroundings. From here, steps lead down to the integral private boathouse, a unique feature rarely found, offering direct access to the beach and water beyond – a dream come true for boat owners and water sports enthusiasts. At the rear of the property, a quaint private courtyard provides a quiet space to relax, sheltered from the elements – perfect for creating a small, secluded garden or as an additional outdoor seating area.

Properties of this calibre, in such a prized location, are extremely rare. This stunning beachfront residence offers an unparalleled lifestyle opportunity, combining luxurious living with direct access to one of West Mersea’s most sought-after stretches of coastline. Whether you are looking for a forever home or an idyllic holiday retreat, this property offers the best of both worlds: an unbeatable coastal location, coupled with modern comforts, privacy, and exclusivity. We highly recommend arranging a viewing to fully appreciate all that this exceptional home has to offer. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of coastal paradise.
