Discover the charm of period architecture in this exquisite four-bedroom townhouse on Brook Street, Manningtree. This historic home, built before 1710, combines timeless elegance with modern amenities, offering a unique living experience. With approximately 1,464 square feet of living space on a 2,756 square foot plot, this residence is a perfect blend of history and contemporary comfort. 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.

As you step inside, you are welcomed by a character-rich hallway, adorned with exposed timber flooring and period doors. To your left is the snug, a cosy retreat featuring exposed floorboards and a large front-facing window that fills the room with natural light. The snug seamlessly connects to the open-plan kitchen and dining area, making it a versatile space for both relaxation and entertaining.

The dining room exudes historic charm with its exposed timber architrave, skirting, and floorboards. A multi-fuel stove set upon a stone hearth with a timber surround serves as the room's focal point, while a full-height Georgian storage cupboard and a large sash window add to the period appeal. Adjacent to the dining room, the cottage-style kitchen boasts solid oak cupboards, granite work surfaces, and tile splashbacks. Modern conveniences include a double oven, grill, four-ring gas hob, and ample space for appliances, making it both functional and inviting.

The conservatory, centrally located between the kitchen and living room, offers a bright and airy space with French doors leading to the patio. Its vaulted timber frame, glass ceiling, and attractive tiling underfoot create an inviting atmosphere perfect for enjoying the garden views. The living room, a dual-aspect L-shaped space, features beautiful sash-framed windows and a fireplace with a timber surround and tiled hearth. This room also provides access to the study, a tranquil workspace with garden views, and the conservatory.

On the first floor, the landing wraps around the staircase, leading to two spacious bedrooms and a family bathroom. The primary bedroom, located at the front of the home, features a sash window, an ornate fireplace, and two full-height wardrobe cupboards. The second bedroom, equally spacious, also includes a sash window and a double-fronted wardrobe cupboard. The fully tiled family bathroom offers a panel bath with a pivoting glass shower screen, a thermostatic shower tap, a heated towel rail, and an opaque glazed window.


Ascending to the second floor, you will find two more bedrooms and a play/dressing room. The third bedroom, nestled within the gently sloping eaves, offers stunning views across the Stour estuary towards the Suffolk coastline. The play/dressing room, with its dormer window, provides a versatile space connecting the two second-floor bedrooms. The fourth bedroom is a generous double room with a wall-mounted gas fire boiler and a side window.


The west-facing rear garden is a delightful sun trap, beginning with a block-paved patio leading to a raised deck with a defined walkway. This outdoor space includes a shed, a raised shingled vegetable patch, and an expansive lawn, making it perfect for outdoor activities and gardening enthusiasts.
