Description

Discover the allure of 9 Lushington Road, a gracious three bedroom detached house nestled in the heart of Manningtree, Essex. With its generous floorplan of around 1,460 sq ft, this home, built in the 1907, is brimming with character. Think high ceilings, elegant sash windows, and a layout designed for modern family life.

You step inside via an inviting entrance hall with a warm wood-panelled front door and karndean flooring, a seamless welcome that leads you through the home. To your right lies a study, offering an ideal quiet zone for a home office or creative nook. On the left, a sleek modern shower room provides a second bathroom to a busy household.

Past the hallway, you’ll be drawn into the bright dining room, perfectly sized for both daily meals and extended family gatherings, with an easy link to the impressive kitchen. The kitchen itself highlights sage-green shaker-style cabinetry and granite worktops that wrap around to a peninsula breakfast bar complete with a striking red splashback and stainless-steel range cooker. A continuation of the karndean flooring and light-filled windows enhance its warm and welcoming vibe. A utility room continues the seamless styling and provides practical access to the rear garden.

The living room at the rear of the house opens gracefully onto the garden through wide French doors, offering a lovely indoor-outdoor flow and ideal relaxation space.

Upstairs, the landing, with its skylight and glass-and-timber balustrade, feels airy and modern. Doors off the landing lead to three comfortable bedrooms: a generous rear-facing double overlooking the garden, a bright double with a skylight and built-in shelving, and a cosy third at the front. A bathroom with a panelled bath, wash basin, and WC completes the upstairs.

Outside, the house is tucked off a quiet no-through road and set back behind a low brick wall and mature planting, with driveway parking to the left (leading to a detached 1.5 length garage at the rear of the plot). The rear garden is a peaceful haven, featuring a lawn bordered by shrubs and an apple tree, a paved patio for sunny afternoons.

What makes the location truly special is Manningtree itself. Often touted as England’s smallest town, this charming riverside gem sits on the River Stour within the beautiful Dedham Vale AONB—part of the storied “Constable Country” made famous by the artist John Constable. Manningtree boasts direct rail links to London Liverpool Street—journeys take under an hour. The town offers cosy pubs like the historic Red Lion, a unique man-made beach safe for swimming, quirky landmarks such as the Manningtree Ox statue, and walking trails steeped in rich local history.
