Spacious four-bedroom detached home backing woodland — great for families and commuters.
Four bedrooms with multiple reception rooms and conservatory
Set on a quiet no-through road backing onto mature woodland, this extended four-bedroom detached home balances family living with countryside convenience. The ground floor offers multiple reception rooms — sitting room, dining room, conservatory, separate study and playroom — giving flexible space for family life and home working. A single integral garage and driveway provide useful off-street parking; the split-level rear garden is well suited to children and outdoor entertaining.
Practical features include solar panels with a reported feed-in/payment benefit (circa £2,000 pa), mains gas warm-air heating, double glazing and Ultrafast broadband availability. The house sits close to a well-regarded primary school and easy access to Manningtree rail links, making it a good choice for families who need countryside living with commuter connections.
The property is dated in places and will benefit from internal modernisation to bring kitchens, bathrooms and finishes up to contemporary standards. There is only one family bathroom for four bedrooms, and the warm-air heating system is a less common arrangement that some buyers may want to replace or supplement. External appearance and some fittings reflect the 1970s construction era, though the overall fabric (cavity walls, filled cavity) appears sound.
For buyers seeking space, good outdoor privacy and scope to personalise, this house offers substantial potential. Investors or growing families will appreciate the large plot and flexible room layout, but expect some refurbishment costs and updating to fully realise the home’s value.
