Summary - 128 COLCHESTER ROAD LAWFORD MANNINGTREE CO11 2BH
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Double garage, south garden and walkable town-centre living — ideal for families.
South-facing, private garden with large deck and paved entertaining area
A substantial four-bedroom detached home on Colchester Road offering classic family living and generous outdoor space. The house sits on a large, private plot of about 600m² with a south-facing, unoverlooked garden, recently fitted large deck, paved patio and lawn — ideal for family entertaining and gardening. Internally there are multiple reception rooms including a study, garden room, and a cosy living room with fireplace, giving flexible space for work, play and relaxation.
Practical strengths include a double garage with power, off-road parking, double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and a full alarm system. The fitted kitchen includes a Rangemaster, butler sink, and integrated appliances with direct garden access. The main bedroom benefits from an en suite Aqualisa shower; three further well-lit bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor.
Location is a key draw: walkable to Manningtree High Street, close to parks, pubs and eateries, and moments from Manningtree station for sub‑hour journeys to London Liverpool Street. Local schooling is strong with several well-regarded primary and secondary options nearby, including an outstanding primary. The property is freehold and lies in a comfortable, low-crime neighbourhood with fast broadband and no flood risk noted.
Notable drawbacks: council tax sits at a high Band F which will increase ongoing costs. The house is described as average-sized overall and was built c.1996–2002, so some buyers may want to review cosmetic wear or future maintenance needs; the listing does not mention recent major structural upgrades. Mobile signal is average. These points should be weighed alongside the ready-to-live-in features and convenient town-fringe location.
