4 Bedroom detached house Esplanade, Maylandsea. £750,000

An ideal property designed to make the most of the changing seasons. Enjoy watching seals and other wildlife—all from the comfort of your own home.

Located in the charming waterside village of Maylandsea in Essex, this home offers a truly special coastal lifestyle. Set against the ever-changing backdrop of the River Blackwater estuary, you can experience breath-taking sunrises, shifting tides, and an abundance of birdlife throughout the year. Maylandsea is renowned for its peaceful atmosphere, sailing heritage, and scenic waterfront walks, making it an idyllic setting for those seeking both relaxation and natural beauty right on their doorstep.

Constructed by renowned Potton Homes and designed to embrace its exceptional surroundings, the property is set on a substantial, large-fronted plot of approximately 135ft x 49ft, with the principal gardens positioned to the front in order to maximise the breathtaking coastal views. A sweeping driveway of approximately 200ft provides off-street parking for numerous vehicles, boat or caravan, and leads to a detached double garage with power and light connected.

Internally, the home combines character, elegance and generous proportions throughout. Traditional Potton features including exposed collars and beams add warmth and charm, while the spacious galleried landing enhances the sense of light and openness.

The welcoming entrance hall leads to the principal reception rooms. The dining room benefits from dual aspect windows and exposed dark timber beams, creating an inviting setting for family gatherings. The impressive lounge is a particular highlight, featuring a magnificent inglenook-style fireplace with cast iron hood, exposed beams and delightful views towards the estuary. Double doors open into a conservatory with tiled flooring and ceiling fans, which in turn provides access to the rear garden.

The cottage-style kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with an extensive range of country-style wall and base units, complemented by laminate work surfaces and a breakfast bar. Appliances include a range oven with hob and extractor over, integrated microwave, and space for an American-style fridge/freezer and dishwasher. A generous utility room offers further appliance space and garden access, alongside a convenient ground floor cloakroom/WC.

To the first floor, four well-appointed bedrooms are accessed from the galleried landing. The principal bedroom enjoys dual aspect windows, exposed beams and a spacious en-suite featuring both a bath and separate shower. Bedrooms two and three are comfortable doubles, while bedroom four also benefits from dual aspect windows and character features. A family bathroom, complete with bath and overhead shower, wash hand basin and WC, serves the remaining bedrooms.

Externally, the superb frontage provides expansive lawned gardens overlooking the estuary — perfect for enjoying morning coffee whilst taking in the tranquil scenery. The rear garden is private and manageable, laid mainly to lawn with a patio seating area and mature hedging.

Rarely does a home of this calibre, position and plot size become available. Offering generous living space, characterful design and truly outstanding views across the Estuary, this is a unique opportunity to secure an exceptional coastal residence.
