At the rear of the bungalow, a sun room provides a tranquil spot to enjoy views over the garden year-round, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces.
The garden itself is thoughtfully landscaped, offering a private and sunny retreat with mature planting, patio areas and a bar for entertaining, and room for further cultivation or relaxation.
The south-facing aspect ensures a bright and warm atmosphere throughout the day.
This property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious and adaptable bungalow in one of Mersea Island’s most desirable locations, just a short distance from the beach, local amenities, and picturesque coastal walks.
