Tucked away in a peaceful residential turning and positioned to take full advantage of the exceptional estuary views, this detached bungalow offers a rare sense of tranquillity and space, both inside and out. From the moment you step inside, the home welcomes you with a calm and considered layout – one that flows effortlessly and is filled with natural light. The living room, with its wide southerly-facing window, feels wonderfully open and airy. It’s a space equally suited to quiet mornings with a book as it is to hosting guests on a sunny afternoon.
The kitchen is both functional and beautifully positioned. Thoughtfully arranged, it enjoys an uninterrupted view out across the estuary, turning even the simplest moments into something scenic. Finished with white-fronted cabinetry and polished quartz surfaces, the room balances clean design with day-to-day practicality, offering a view that may well become your favourite part of the house, capturing not only the light but also the rolling sky and distant shimmer of water.
Two generously sized double bedrooms continue the sense of comfort and light. The principal bedroom is tucked to the rear, enjoying privacy and a pleasant garden outlook, complete with fitted wardrobes for clean, effortless storage. The front bedroom mirrors the home’s elevated position, delivering that sweeping estuary view once more – an ever-changing landscape of boats, birds and sky that makes waking up here something truly special.
The bathroom is finished in contemporary tones, with sleek coral tiling and a full-width vanity unit offering plenty of space for essentials. It’s a calm, easy-to-maintain space designed with comfort in mind.
Outside, the gardens have been landscaped for simplicity and enjoyment. At the front, shingle-laid borders create a neat first impression, while to the rear, a tiered garden invites you to unwind across various levels – from paved terraces to a sheltered summer house, every corner feels private and bathed in sun throughout the day. Whether you’re hosting a few friends or enjoying a peaceful moment with a cuppa, it’s a garden that asks very little of you but gives plenty in return.
This is a home that’s been carefully maintained and clearly loved – one that offers not only practical one-level living, but the kind of setting that feeds the soul. With estuary views that change with the light and seasons, and with the convenience of Manningtree’s town and station just moments away, this is more than just a move – it’s a step into a quieter, more beautiful way of life.
