Set on a generous plot in Little Maplestead, Coveyhythe is a spacious three-bedroom detached bungalow that blends single-storey living with wide countryside views. The home offers bright, well-proportioned rooms including a large kitchen with island, a lounge with wood burner, separate dining room with decking access, and principal bedroom with en-suite. Outbuildings include a barn with basic kitchen units, a large wood store and garden shed — useful for hobbies or storage.
The property is presented in good decorative order and described as “stunning throughout,” with practical comforts such as double glazing and underfloor heating in the shower room. The location is rural and peaceful, close to Halstead and Sudbury, with local amenities, village services and several primary and secondary schools within easy reach. Fast broadband and very low local crime support both home-working and family life.
Buyers should note construction and services facts: the house is timber-framed and likely lacks wall insulation, the main heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators, and services/appliances have not been tested. These points may affect running costs and future upgrade choices. The substantial plot and outbuildings offer clear potential for improvement or extension subject to planning.
This bungalow will suit buyers seeking level, single-storey living with privacy and rural outlooks — families, downsizers or those wanting a countryside base with outdoor space and storage. A pre-purchase survey is recommended to confirm build details and any retrofit insulation or heating work required.
