THE OPPORTUNITY
This 1.55-acre site is for sale with planning permission to build an impressive, individual home, set well back in its grounds and with equestrian potential.

As the floorplans show, the finished property has been designed around a central patio to create a light, open-plan reception area on the ground floor, which will also enjoy a rural outlook across the property's grounds and beyond.
 
Other accommodation will include two bedrooms on the ground floor (one with an en-suite shower room), a study which could also be used as a fourth bedroom if required, a utility room, a WC and a good-sized entrance hall. There will be an additional double bedroom on the first-floor which has an en-suite shower room and a full height window.

There are a number outbuildings in the grounds including a small barn with potential to be turned into into a further residential dwelling or annex to the main house (subject to obtaining planning consent).

LOCATION
The property is located in the parish of Ardleigh approximately three miles to the south of Manningtree on the Essex/Suffolk border. Colchester is approximately four miles to the south where buyers will find extensive shopping and dining establishments.

Manningtree mainline station offers a direct service to London Liverpool Street with a journey time of 60 minutes.

DIRECTIONS
The plot can be found to the rear of 22 Harwich Road, close to the junction with Coggeshall Road.

POINTS TO NOTE
We understand the site has access to mains water, electric and drainage and will need to be heated via an oil-fired central heating system. Ofcom state that Superfast Broadband and good mobile phone coverage is available on the site.

The property includes its own access as far as Harwich Road, albeit two other dwellings have a right of access over the final stages.

Full planning documentation is available on request or can be looked up with Tendring District Council's planning portal using the reference 19/00297/FUL. Please note our clients have laid suitable foundations for the property which have been approved by a local firm of structural engineers (documentation available on request). We understand this constitutes a meaningful commencement to the build.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on March 2, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 2, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
