Description

Secluded Rural Retreat with Privacy, Charm, and Convenience

Are you dreaming of a country escape with space to breathe, where neighbours are few and far between, and where your children can safely play and grow in a beautiful garden sanctuary? Picture a place where they can kick a football or perhaps even practice their golf swing, while you enjoy long afternoons by the pool, relaxed BBQs with family and friends, and the peace and quiet of the countryside—all in complete privacy.

Less than six miles from Manningtree Station, this superb Victorian detached home offers the perfect blend of rural tranquillity and everyday convenience. Set down a quiet country lane, you’ll be more likely to encounter cyclists and walkers than traffic, yet local amenities and transport links are still within easy reach.

As the summer sun sets, imagine returning home from work, taking the dog for a brisk stroll, pouring a glass of your favourite tipple, firing up the BBQ with fresh local produce, and joining the children for a splash in the pool. This is more than a house—it's a lifestyle.
