THE PROPERTY
Sunnybank, which was once the village Post Office, is for sale for the first time in decades and offers buyers the chance to create an excellent village home close to the centre of the village of Ramsey.
As the floorplan shows, the house has three bedrooms accessed from one staircase at the end of the property, two interconnecting reception rooms, a kitchen and a ground floor bathroom. Given the elongated layout it would benefit from a rear extension which we expect would be workable given the size of the plot (subject to planning).
The house retains period features including original doors and ornate fireplaces and has two chimney stacks.
The garden measures 85 feet and is delightful, with a variety of plants, shrubs and trees (including a willow) arranged around a lawn at the centre. There is a raised patio adjacent to the house which can be accessed via a small conservatory at the rear of the house or from the rear lobby.
LOCATION
Sunnybank is very much a village house, located just 100 metres from the village centre where there is a Master Butchers and the Castle Inn Public House.
The port town of Harwich is just two miles west from the property with Manningtree being eight miles to the east. The City of Colchester is 18 miles away. Rail services can be found at Wrabness which is less than three miles away, where a service connects to London Liverpool Street with a journey time of 1hr and 25 minutes.
