Background and history A charming 4 bedroom detached Victorian house built circa 1889 for Eli Cornish of the Tortoise Brickworks from where the house takes its name. The house features double bay fronted red brick elevations beneath tiled roofs relieved by deep sash windows.

Unusually the principal elevation faces the rear gardens away from the road; the road side elevation has recently been rebuilt as part of a carefully managed renovation following improvement works to the Wethersfield Road and structural repairs to the house which are now completed. The living accommodation features traditional tall ceilings and a number of period features. The ground floor has a large welcoming entrance hall, open-plan living room with central fireplace, newly fitted kitchen, dining room and breakfast room. The first floor offers 4 double bedrooms, one with an interconnecting bathroom and an impressive, spacious landing.

The property stands in mature gardens with the remains of the original sunken grass tennis court (as depicted in the 1920's photo on the brochure). 

Setting and location The house is located in a semi-rural setting just ½ a mile from the popular north Essex village of Sible Hedingham. The village has local amenities catering for everyday needs. The larger town of Halstead is just 5 miles to the south, the Suffolk market town of Sudbury and Braintree town are both 8 miles away.

For the commuter, there are branch line rail services into London Liverpool Street at Braintree (8 miles) and mainline services at; Marks Tey and Kelvedon and Witham (15 miles), where there is also access onto the A12. The M11 is within 23 miles and London Stansted Airport is 21 miles

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    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

    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
