A superb opportunity to acquire a three bedroom detached home on Colchester Road, in the peaceful and much loved village of Wix, just a short distance from the historic market town of Manningtree. Offered with no onward chain and ready for a scheme of modernisation, this property is perfect for anyone seeking to create a bespoke family home to suit their own tastes.
To the ground floor there is a living room, dining room and kitchen as well as a lean to. To the first floor there are three bedrooms and a wet room.
Externally, the house enjoys a 42ft × 34ft (12.8 m × 10.4 m) front garden incorporating a 67ft (20.4 m) long driveway leading to a garage as well as a 65 ft × 41 ft (19.8 m × 12.5 m) rear garden. These generous external spaces are ideal for an extension, landscaping or outdoor living.
Wix is a tranquil, village scale community with a population of around 800 and set in a valley roughly two miles south of the Stour Estuary, retaining its rural character yet with close proximity to surrounding towns. The village offers a sense of community, with a local shop, a village pub (The Waggon at Wix) and other small scale amenities all within easy reach.
Families will appreciate that the local primary education is provided by Wix and Wrabness Primary School, rated “Good” by Ofsted, offering a reliable school option within the village. For secondary schooling and a wider range of shops, services, and leisure options, nearby Manningtree and the larger town of Colchester are readily accessible with Colchester being around 9 miles (14 km) away by road, a drive of about 15 minutes.
For commuting and travel, the area is well served. The nearby stations at Manningtree, Mistley or Wrabness railway station is 2.5 miles from Wix offer direct rail services — ideal for commuting to London or beyond. Road links are strong too as Wix sits close to the A120, providing easy access to the coast or broader regional road network.
For those drawn to the coast and maritime connections, the international ferry and cruise terminal at Harwich International Port is approximately 7 miles by road putting sea faring links or continental ferries within easy reach.
If air travel is a priority, London Stansted Airport is also realistically accessible: by car it would typically be a drive of around 50 miles offering a convenient gateway for flights.
The broader area is ideal for a balanced lifestyle, rural tranquillity, access to rivers and estuary landscapes, nearby coastal towns, and the convenience of road and rail transport. Whether you’re planning to renovate and extend, create landscaped gardens, or just enjoy village life with easy access to larger towns and travel links, this house presents a compelling canvas.
