Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Brantham, this extended five‑bedroom detached home suits growing families who value space and countryside access. The living room with characterful beams and a separate dining room create clear living and entertaining zones, while a large rear garden and covered pergola extend usable space in fine weather.
Practical day‑to‑day features include a utility room, cloakroom, attached garage and wide driveway for multiple cars. The master bedroom benefits from an ensuite; three further double bedrooms plus a fifth room provide flexibility for children, guests or a home office. Broadband is fast, mobile signal is excellent and local crime levels are very low.
The house was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and has double glazing installed before 2002 and mains gas central heating. These elements, along with a functional but personalised kitchen and two bath/shower rooms serving five bedrooms, mean the home will appeal to buyers happy to update cosmetic and some service-age components over time.
Location is a key strength: Brooklands Primary is within easy walking distance and several well‑rated secondary schools are nearby. Manningtree station is under two miles away with direct links to London, and the property sits inside Constable Country, close to Dedham Vale countryside and village amenities. Freehold tenure and no flood risk add practical reassurance.
