A particular highlight is the large conservatory, which spans the rear of the property and offers stunning views over the rear garden and open farmland beyond. This bright and airy space is ideal for relaxing throughout the seasons, with doors leading directly onto the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.

Externally, the expansive ¼ acre plot offers mature gardens and generous outdoor space, providing plenty of room for gardening, play, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The views over neighbouring fields add to the cottage’s appeal, creating a truly idyllic backdrop.

Blackbird Cottage is a rare find in a desirable East Mersea location—private, spacious, and full of potential, all within easy reach of Mersea’s coastline, local pubs, and countryside walks.
