3 bed terraced house for sale

Barrack Street, Bradfield, Manningtree CO11

The Property

The house opens into a central hallway, with the staircase rising ahead and rooms arranged to either side.

To the front is a wonderfully cosy sitting room, where the deep green wall, soft furnishings and carefully chosen artwork give the space a more intimate feel. It is a room with real personality and provides a lovely contrast to the larger open-plan spaces beyond.

On the opposite side is a further reception room, currently used as a study and library. The built-in shelving gives it a distinctive character of its own, while the proportions make it a flexible space that could work equally well as a home office, reading room or additional sitting room.

The kitchen and living area forms the heart of the home, bringing together cooking, relaxing and entertaining in one generous space. Shaker-style cabinetry, timber worktops and the central island add warmth and texture, while the exposed brick base to the island introduces another layer of character.

Beyond this is the garden room. Rooflights draw natural light in from above, while full-width bi-folding doors open onto the rear terrace and garden.

Currently used as a dining room, it is a particularly lovely part of the house, bright and airy throughout the day and opening almost entirely to the garden in warmer weather.

A ground-floor cloakroom sits discreetly beneath the stairs.

Upstairs, the sense of character continues across three well-proportioned bedrooms.

The principal bedroom sits to the rear and enjoys a lovely outlook across the surrounding countryside, giving the room a calm and private feel. The two front bedrooms are both generous and versatile, with one currently used as a stylish home office and music room.

The family bathroom has been finished in a clean, understated way, with a separate bath and shower enclosure, vanity unit and patterned flooring.

The Outside

The front of the property is predominantly laid to shingle, providing off-street parking.

At the rear, the garden is a real extension of the house.

A paved terrace sits immediately outside the garden room, creating an easy space for outdoor dining and entertaining, particularly when the bi-folding doors are fully open.

The garden has a mature, established feel, with a mix of planting that softens the boundaries and creates a good degree of privacy.

Its south-westerly aspect is a real advantage, bringing afternoon and evening light into both the garden and the rear of the house.

Beyond, the outlook opens towards the surrounding countryside, giving the setting a much more rural feel than you might expect from the front.

The Area

Bradfield is a well-placed north Essex village surrounded by open countryside and close to the Stour estuary.

The wider area has a peaceful, semi-rural feel, with plenty of countryside walks and easy access to Manningtree, Mistley and Lawford for everyday amenities, shops, cafés and schooling.

Manningtree station offers direct services towards London Liverpool Street, while Colchester and Ipswich are also within easy reach by road.
