Spacious family home with large south garden and woodland outlook.
High-spec new-build four-bedroom detached home
Plot 28, The Linum is a high-specification four-bedroom detached new build designed for family life. The house sits on a very large south-facing plot backing onto woodland, with bi-fold and French doors that bring light and direct garden access. Practical extras include a double garage with power and light, solar panels, air source heat pump and underfloor heating throughout.
Inside, the layout is family-friendly: a study and cloakroom to the ground floor, a triple-aspect living room, and a generous open-plan kitchen/family room with utility room. Upstairs offers three double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a principal suite with built-in wardrobes and an en-suite, plus a four-piece family bathroom. The property is covered by a 10-year structural warranty and finished to a high specification.
Notable running factors are clear: there is an annual management charge of £358 for communal maintenance and the site uses a pumping station for drainage. Broadband speeds in the area are slow, despite excellent mobile signal and reasonable road links to Colchester and the coast. The immediate neighbourhood is classed as ageing rural with pockets of local deprivation, so buyers should weigh village tranquillity against wider area indicators.
This home suits families seeking modern, low-maintenance living in a quiet, rural setting with strong eco-features and substantial outdoor space. It offers immediate move-in convenience as a new build but also requires consideration of local service infrastructure and ongoing estate charges.
