3 bed Flat For Sale £425,000
Brightlingsea
What We Think at The Zoe Napier Group
This is a very rare opportunity to buy a flat within the historic Anchor Inn in centre of Brightlingsea’s waterfront, benefitting with its own courtyard garden, amazing views and two parking spaces, this is a real gem!
What The Owners Say
We have loved living in this house. We can walk to everything from here and, during the day, the whole world seems to revolve around us, whilst at night it’s incredibly peaceful and quiet. The daylight in the house is amazing, even on a dull day, with 2.5m high windows. Save the cellar, there are no steps, either inside or outside. We, with the other two owners, hold the freehold and manage the building between us through a management company.
History And Background
The Anchor Inn has been on the site since around the 1630’s, the current building was designed in 1901 by George Henry Page of Colchester. Built with an unusual mixture of Jacobean and Bavarian style, this 2 storey property includes attics which has 2 windows to the main front, the south and east fronts have 2 projecting gables with deep coving and elaborate oak framing and terracotta dragon finials. Ground floor has three stone round-headed entrances with keystone and reeded pilasters, double doors, and stained glass. The building was converted into three flats in the year 2000 and has a lease with 978 years remaining. The building is Grade 2 listed and appears on all local memorabilia including postcards and fudge boxes etc.
Setting and Location
Located by the waterside in the coastal town of Brightlingsea, around eleven miles from Colchester. Brightlingsea is a bustling town with a good selection of shops, schools, and amenities. Ideal for the sailors and yachting enthusiasts among us, as well as other outdoor lovers, with sports and recreational clubs nearby, or for those who want to be part of town life without ever needing to leave home! The property is close to sandy beaches, colourful beach huts, a lido, a skate park and playground and a boating lake, providing plenty of opportunities for a family day out. A number of lovely walks along the sea front offers ramblers and birdwatchers the opportunity to enjoy the diverse flora and fauna that abound around this beautiful corner of the Essex Sunshine Coast.
