Enjoy luxury living on Mersea Island
Mehalah Heights is an exclusive collection of just three impressive homes offering elegant interiors and finished to a high specification.
Each new property boasts an exceptional kitchen/dining room with a stylish breakfast island and Neff appliances, whilst there is a light, bright sitting room, a handy cloakroom and a utility room, along with a study – which could also make an ideal playroom or snug. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing area and shower room, with three further double bedrooms and a sleek family bathroom.
Mersea boasts a population of around 7,000 residents and its stunning views and strong sense of community make it an attractive destination for homebuyers and holidaymakers. The island has a rich history, highlighted by Mersea Museum, and there are sites of cultural interest dating back to pre-Roman times. The parish church has Anglo-Saxon origins, and Revered Sabine Baring-Gould, a prolific author and historian, served as rector of East Mersea Church in the late 19th century.
Mehalah Heights gets its name from Baring-Gould’s 1871 novel, Mehalah, which was set in Mersea and the surrounding area. Although his work was fictional, it was thought he based his characters on real people, which lead to Mehalah becoming embedded in local folklore.
Mersea is becoming a haven for foodies with some fabulous waterside eateries to explore and a wonderful local deli selling a range of freshly baked goods, artisanal foods, cheese and charcuterie. Coast Road is home to Seafood at Dawn, The Duke’s Seafood, The Coast Inn, The Company Shed and the Victory Hotel. Whilst other tasty treats can be found at The Art Café, Coastal Coffee, Seafood Shack and Waterfront Pizza – not forgetting fantastic fish and chips from Mersea Island Fish Bar!
With numerous activities to enjoy on and off the water, Mehalah Heights offers the very best of both worlds – close to local amenities, yet minutes from the serenity of the stunning seafront.
