Details

This rarely available, three double-bedroom Victorian cottage can be found within a short distance of the picturesque waterfront Town of Manningtree, where a station and many shops and eateries can be found. The property is spaciously deceptive, and from the front aspect presents itself as a small cottage. However, when approaching via the side, the double-storey side extension gives a somewhat different appearance. The ground floor comprises of two receptions, a snug, a bathroom, and a kitchen. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. This well-proportioned residence would benefit from updating throughout. Externally, the garden is mainly to the side and could do with being cut back. A gate, at the end of the garden, allows vehicular access to a garage and hard standing. This could be re-organised to provide a pleasant outside space. CHAIN FREE
