Set within half an acre in the Dedham Vale AONB, Windyridge is a substantial five-double-bedroom detached house offering far-reaching rural views and significant living space. Built in 2002 and arranged over multiple floors, the house includes three en-suite bedrooms, a belvedere leading to a balcony, large reception rooms and a generous kitchen with island.
This home will suit families seeking space, flexibility and countryside living close to Flatford Mill and the River Stour. The plot is private and landscaped, with a partially sunken patio, double garage and extensive driveway. Good local schools and village amenities are within easy walking distance, while mainline rail and the A12 are accessible for longer commutes.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired with boiler and radiators, broadband speeds are slow in the area, and the property uses private drainage (septic/soakaway) which requires ongoing maintenance. Council Tax is in a high band and some areas may benefit from updating to reflect modern efficiency standards.
Viewing is essential to appreciate the scale, layout and exceptional Dedham Vale outlook; the house offers genuine potential for a comfortable family home, flexible holiday base or an executive country residence for buyers who value privacy and landscape setting.
