This charming three-bedroom detached cottage with a self-contained annexe is set on a generous plot in the sought-after village of Peldon, just a short distance from Colchester. Offering a blend of character and versatility, the property benefits from mature gardens, a large driveway with ample parking, a spacious workshop, and the potential to extend the cottage.
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.
Regular buses run from Mersea through Peldon to Colchester, which offers direct mainline train services to London, as well as easy access to the Sunshine Coast Line serving Wivenhoe, Clacton, Walton, and Frinton.
This is a lovely home in a peaceful setting, with charm, flexibility, and scope for further enhancement.
