4 Bedroom House, Trinity Road, Manningtree, CO11
Trinity Road, Manningtree, CO11
Description
Trinity Bungalow is an exceptional individual property found in an idylic and unique location built on rising land from the Stour estuary. Over the years it has seen modification and extensions designed to capture the far-reaching and ever changing views over gently falling land and chimney pots towards the Suffolk coastline.
Trinity Road itself is one of the most sought after roads in the locale providing a diverse array of local housing from the Georgian and Victorian eras through to modern day.
The plot of Trinity bungalow lies east to west. The front of the property bathed in the morning sun and the evening offers up spectacular sunsets at the rear. Moreover, there are no immediate neighbours. Allotments break the line of housing to the south and former grazing land, now designated green space to the north and to the west, which encapsulates the open country feel of this centrally located property.
Significant enhancements and extensions have been designed and fulfilled within the last 17 years to create modern and architecturally interesting features. These form a triple aspect vaulted living room to the rear which is open plan to a large vaulted kitchen diner with granite work surfaces. Both of these well planned additions provide up to two metre high windows which each frame a far reaching perspective of this immediate part of Manningtree town and the Estuary beyond.
On the first floor an extremely impressive, vaulted and flexible studio equally suited as a spectacular first bedroom or first floor reception room has bi-folding oak frame doors with full height glazing leading onto a steel framed glass partitioned balcony designed, again, to provide an elevated perspective of this area of outstanding natural beauty.
In addition to the above there are up to three further bedrooms to the ground floor, the first having an ensuite shower room, the second being of excellent proportions and the third offering further versatility as a study, playroom or other particular use to suit your individual needs. There is an additional fourth bedroom with ensuite facility in the form of a shower room on the first floor.
Outside the road frontage is retained by low redbrick wall and mature screening shrubbery. A long paved driveway extends down the side of the property and also extends across the front to provide a wealth of parking or storage for a boat / caravan. At the end of the driveway, by the side of the property, you will find a double length garage with up and over door, personal door to the garden with light and power connected. Attached to the back of this garage is a separate storage room with doors into the garden and behind that is a third storage room which has the potential to be converted to outside office itself having glazed French doors leading into the garden.
Extending outside of the living room to the kitchen is an attractive red brick paved patio area leading onto a formal lawn garden with retaining flower borders and low-level shrubbery. This is a tranquil retreat landscaped to sustain the outlook over gently falling land towards the Stour estuary to the north and to the west.
Trinity bungalow is a unique purchase proposition close to the town centre, within the conservation area, uniquely offering a superb central location encompassed by a triple open aspect with versatile living accommodation.
