Property description & features

  • 4 bedrooms, two of which are ensuite
  • Family bathroom
  • 3 reception rooms
  • Garage
  • Approx. 3.75 acres
  • Village location
Part of our Signature collection, this well-proportioned four bedroom detached house is set to the front of grounds extending to 3.75 acres, in this accessible village to the east of Colchester.

The property was built in 2006 and has three good sized reception rooms and a garden room. There is a large open loft space which could be suitable for conversion, subject to building consent. The land beyond the garden benefits from separate access and the field has been left to attract wildlife, but may be suitable for other uses.

The entrance hall opens to a large hall with a cloakroom and staircase rising to the first floor. At the front are the study and sitting room, which has a dual aspect and fireplace.

Double doors lead through to the dining room, which not only links back to the kitchen, but flows through into the garden room, with a double-glazed roof and French doors leading out.

The kitchen has recently been fitted with contemporary units under stone worksurfaces and matching wall mounted cupboards. Built-in appliances include an induction hob with extractor, two ovens and a microwave, integral dishwasher, larder fridge, and fridge/freezer. A door leads to the hall and utility, with matching units providing ample storage and space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

The first-floor landing has an airing cupboard and access to the loft space. The principal bedroom is the largest, with a built-in wardrobe and large ensuite shower room with walk in shower. The second bedroom is another large double with built-in wardrobe and ensuite shower room. There are two further bedrooms, both with wardrobes, and the family bathroom.

Outside
Veranda Cottage is located in the corner of the plot, with parking to the front and a single garage, measuring 18’ x 9’1” with up and over door.

The rear garden comprises a patio and lawn, and is open to the rest of the land, with cut grass leading to an area of long grass with wildflowers and cut pathways. There is a 5-bar gate with access back to Harwich Road. There is another 5-bar gate at the back of the open area which leads to more land with a variety of shrubs and trees attracting wildlife. A series of pathways meander through the land and in total the plot is approaching 3.75 acres.


Location

The village of Great Bromley is close to the A120, a coastal road to Harwich, and provides good access through the Tendring district and back to Colchester. The village has a good range of amenities with a Costcutter, primary school and church. Within walking distance of the property is a green with children’s play area.

The nearest railways stations are at Great Bentley, which has services from the coast through to Colchester and beyond, and Manningtree where mainline services run to London Liverpool Street.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on December 16, 2021

    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 December 21, 2021

    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
