Inside, the main residence features a warm, welcoming interior with traditional cottage charm and modern touches. The ground floor includes a spacious living area, a well-appointed kitchen, and an understairs storage cupboard. The cosy lounge has a cast iron wood burner and leads to a light-filled dining room, both with front and side windows. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a family bathroom all offer panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.
A standout feature is the annexe, ideal for extended family, guests, or rental income. Thoughtfully designed for independence and comfort, it includes a private entrance, open-plan lounge/dining room, fitted kitchen with hob, fridge and washing machine, bathroom with shower, and a double bedroom with patio doors to its own garden area overlooking Mersea.
The property is approached via a gravelled driveway. The large workshop adjacent to the house is perfect for hobbies, storage, or could be adapted for additional living space. The south-facing rear garden is a true highlight, with mature shrubs, trees, two sheds, and a base ready for a greenhouse. A private side garden with established hedging offers additional space and privacy.
Peldon is a thriving village with a pub, restaurant, nursery, and park with a play area and gym equipment, making it ideal for families. A well-regarded primary school is located nearby in Abberton. The village also has a strong community spirit centred around the church and village hall, which hosts regular events throughout the year.
