Welcome to Walnut Tree Cottage, a charming three-bedroom, two bathroom detached character home built in 2001, situated in the picturesque village of Abberton, offering a wonderful combination of charm, generous living accommodation and modern-day practicality.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into the home via an expansive hallway area. The ground floor is centred around a spacious dual-aspect living room, filled with natural light and featuring a traditional log burner which creates a warm and inviting focal point. Adjoining the living room is a separate dining room, where an attractive bay window overlooks the rear garden and provides an ideal setting for both everyday family dining and entertaining.

The modern fitted kitchen offers a good range of storage and worktop space, complemented by a useful utility room providing additional practicality away from the main living areas. A ground floor WC completes the accommodation on this level.

Upstairs, the generous landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, benefiting from a dual aspect, bespoke fitted wardrobes and a private en-suite shower room. The remaining two bedrooms provide flexible accommodation for family, guests or those requiring a home office, with useful eaves storage adding to the practicality of the first floor. A family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms.

Outside, Walnut Tree Cottage enjoys an attractive and established cottage-style garden, providing a peaceful setting for relaxing and entertaining throughout the warmer months. The property further benefits from block-paved off-road parking and a detached garage which was previously used as an office, offering valuable storage or working space. Situated on a private lane, the property enjoys access to miles of uninterrupted footpaths and bridleways through the surrounding countryside with stunning views across the reservoir.

Positioned within the desirable village of Abberton, the property combines a peaceful village setting with convenient access to nearby amenities and transport connections. Mersea Island is also just a short drive away, offering easy access to its coastline, beaches, restaurants and renowned waterfront.

Walnut Tree Cottage represents a rare opportunity to acquire an individual character home in a sought-after village location, perfectly suited to those looking for charm, space and countryside living within easy reach of Colchester and the Essex coast.
