This Grade II listed former farmhouse presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment, nestled within a serene private setting on nearly 14 acres. Historically significant, this property has served diverse purposes over the years, including its recent use as a cricket field by both the owners and the local community. The main house features four bedrooms and six reception rooms, offering ample living space that can be tailored to modern needs.
The grounds offer considerable potential for redevelopment or enhancement, with several outbuildings to explore. Notably, one of the 18th-century barns has received planning approval for conversion into a four-bedroom dwelling, creating additional income possibilities or family accommodations (inquire with the agent for further details). The expansive outdoor areas include traditional gardens, established hedgerows, and remnants of an original moat—all elements that contribute to the character of this historic property while inviting creative landscaping endeavors.
Located at the end of a private road on the outskirts of Bradwell-on-Sea, access is seamless via a wooden field gate leading to both the farmhouse and its various outbuildings. The plot's southern orientation not only provides picturesque views over open farmland but also offers a glimpse of the North Sea in the distance. The northern side showcases a sweeping driveway that enhances curb appeal while allowing for convenient parking.
Bradwell-on-Sea itself is part of the picturesque Dengie Peninsula where natural beauty meets rich maritime heritage. This quiet village is home to essential amenities such as a primary school, community shop, post office, and several local pubs. Proximity to Southminster means residents can easily access train services to London Liverpool Street within about 15 minutes. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate abundant opportunities for hiking and birdwatching in surrounding countryside areas as well as water sports activities along the nearby River Blackwater.
This property represents not just a residence but also a canvas for those looking to invest in historical charm combined with modern convenience. With its spacious interiors, extensive grounds, and proximity to both community amenities and beautiful natural settings, it encourages imaginative renovations tailored to current lifestyles while preserving its unique heritage.
