Situated in the heart of historic Manningtree, this Grade II listed, four-bedroomed, red-brick town house enjoys a plethora of traditional features and benefits from accommodation comprising sitting room, dining room, conservatory, kitchen, ground-floor bathroom, four bedrooms and first-floor bathroom. The property also enjoys a courtyard garden and far-reaching views towards the estuary.
Tucked away in a quietly elegant position in Manningtree, within walking distance of the town centre and the beautiful tidal estuary, this glorious, rich in history, home has been lovingly enjoyed by its current owners.
And with foundations dating back to the early 18th century, the walls of this Grade II listed, would have many stories to tell.
Once two cottages, this home has been converted into one, beautifully proportioned period dwelling which enjoys a plethora of quirky nooks, crannies and original features.
Three stone steps lead up to the entrance door and transport the visitor into the entrance hall where a huddle of doors lead into the main living accommodation.
An aura of warmth envelops the visitor as they move through the generous ground-floor accommodation, with glorious original features at every turn.
On the first floor are two double bedrooms and family bathroom. By taking the incredible split staircase to the second floor, the visitor can enjoy far reaching views over Manningtree, towards the tidal estuary.
This historic property on Brook Street breathes every minute of its past but happily takes its place in the 21st century, looking forward to the next chapter.
