Description
Positioned in the heart of Manningtree, this remarkable end-of-terrace townhouse invites you to experience riverfront living with uninterrupted vistas of the Stour Estuary. Unfolding over three floors, this home effortlessly blends function and form, offering a layout that’s both practical and poised for modern living. A versatile double garage on the ground floor not only provides ample parking but also houses an additional storage room, perfect for seasonal gear or hobby equipment. The entrance hall introduces a sense of flow that continues upwards, with a half landing offering convenient access to a cloakroom and utility area.
The first floor is where the home’s architectural allure comes to life. A spacious living room takes centre stage, with French doors that open to a balcony framing the estuary views – a picturesque backdrop for morning coffee or sunset reflections. Adjacent, the kitchen is thoughtfully arranged with ample storage and counter space, enhanced by sliding doors that connect to a sunlit garden room. Here, full-height windows wrap around the space, creating a seamless connection to the south-facing courtyard garden – a private sanctuary for alfresco dining or quiet afternoons.
Ascending to the second floor, the accommodation presents three double bedrooms, each thoughtfully positioned to capture light and aspect. The principal bedroom, generously proportioned, extends the river views, allowing you to wake up to the beauty of the Suffolk coastline. The third bedroom, equally captivating, mirrors this panorama, while the second bedroom offers a more secluded retreat at the rear. Completing the level is a well-appointed family shower room.
Outside, the garden’s low-maintenance layout ensures effortless enjoyment, with a suntrap patio and raised flower borders adding a touch of greenery. This is a home where coastal charm meets contemporary comfort, where every room holds a view and every detail tells a story. Whether it’s the river’s gentle flow or the town’s vibrant heart just moments away, this townhouse has both in abundance.
