Description
Situated alongside the River Chelmer in a picturesque setting within Maldon, this impressive two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex maisonette occupies a unique position within a charming former Victorian industrial granary. Having been comprehensively improved and modernised to an exceptionally high standard, the property combines contemporary accommodation with the character of the original building and enjoys breathtaking, far-reaching river views, two private balconies, allocated parking, a garage and its own mooring.
The development is accessed via a private gated entrance and offers a distinctive waterside setting, with the converted granaries positioned either side of their own pontoon moorings. The attractive brick elevations, arched windows and traditional architectural detailing provide a reminder of the building's industrial heritage.
Upon entering, a spacious entrance hall immediately sets the tone for the quality of the accommodation, featuring attractive herringbone-effect flooring, contemporary internal doors and a striking metal spiral staircase. There is ample storage, a useful utility cupboard and a separate cloakroom, which has also been stylishly refurbished.
The main living accommodation is arranged around an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, creating a versatile space ideally suited to both everyday living and entertaining.
The contemporary fitted kitchen features stylish two-tone cabinetry with contrasting handles, complemented by quartz worktops and a breakfast bar with decorative timber panelling. Integrated appliances include a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, oven and induction hob. The kitchen flows naturally into the dining area both of which benefit from underfloor heating. Ample space is provided for a dining table and enjoys direct access to the substantial south-facing balcony.
This particularly impressive outdoor space offers room for seating and outdoor dining, with wonderful panoramic views along the River Chelmer, taking in the surrounding moorings and historic waterfront.
The adjoining living area provides a comfortable space to relax and features a bespoke media wall with decorative timber panelling and subtle feature lighting. A further balcony overlooks the private pontoon moorings, providing another attractive perspective of the waterside surroundings.
Also on this floor is a well-proportioned double bedroom, featuring attractive arched window openings and direct access to the rear balcony. The bedroom benefits from its own contemporary en-suite shower room, finished with striking blue tiling, a walk-in shower, modern vanity unit and heated towel rail.
A distinctive spiral staircase leads to the upper floor, where a spacious landing has been cleverly utilised to provide an extensive dressing area, with open wardrobe storage beneath the sloping ceiling.
The upper floor is home to the impressive principal bedroom, a particularly spacious room with a vaulted ceiling, characterful circular window and additional windows providing elevated views across the river and surrounding waterways. The room also offers ample space for a study or home office area.
Completing the upper-floor accommodation is a stunning bathroom, thoughtfully designed to make the most of the building's distinctive roofline. A freestanding double-ended bath takes centre stage beneath a large window, complemented by decorative timber panelling and contemporary fittings. A separate walk-in rainfall shower, finished with attractive green feature tiling, adds to the quality of this impressive space.
Externally, the property benefits from a garage with an electrically operated door, an allocated parking space and additional residents' parking beyond the gated entrance. The communal grounds are well maintained and include a substantial shingled patio and raised deck adjoining the river.
Of particular appeal to boating enthusiasts, the property also benefits from its own tidal mooring, accommodating a vessel of up to 24 feet, with access to the River Blackwater and the wider coastline.
The Granaries is a private development created through the conversion of former Victorian industrial buildings over 30 years ago. The residents have collectively purchased the freehold in equal shares and established their own management company to oversee the maintenance of the communal areas. The grounds are maintained to a high standard, with the exterior of the buildings renewed on a rolling programme. A planned upcoming improvement includes an upgrade to the floating mooring boardwalk.
Combining the character of a historic waterside building with a comprehensive contemporary refurbishment, this is a particularly distinctive home in one of Maldon's most interesting riverside settings. With generous accommodation, two private balconies, far-reaching views and the unusual benefit of its own mooring, the property offers an appealing opportunity to enjoy life beside the River Chelmer.
