Customers can alternatively choose from a range of one and two-bedroom apartment designs at Cook’s Shipyard, priced from £159,995 to £249,995.

While selected homes at the development benefit from balconies and private terraces to the living areas and bedrooms, each enjoys a high standard specification including fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood, double glazing, gas central heating and an allocated parking space.

The architectural design of the new coastal apartments also features the weatherboard and soft red brickwork architecture that characterise the historic fishing and seaport.

Part of the regeneration of the former docklands at Wivenhoe, Taylor Wimpey’s Cook’s Shipyard development lies within a new community which will also comprise places of work and leisure opportunities set around the water’s edge.

Wivenhoe’s oldest inn, restaurants and bistros serving fresh local seafood are within a short stroll of the new properties, while the town is already home to shops for everyday needs, a railway station and cosmopolitan restaurants, cafes, bistros and bars.

For a wider choice of shopping, leisure and schools, Colchester town centre is less than five miles away, while a range of attractions can be found in the area, including the world-famous Beth Chatto Gardens, Constable’s Flatford Mill and the National Trust’s Paycocke’s at Coggeshall.

Although the pace and quality of life at this sought-after location in Wivenhoe is restful, it’s also a very well-connected town, with rail services to London in only 69 minutes.
