<p>Set within College Court, close to Manningtree’s town centre and mainline station, this three-bedroom end-of-terrace home offers a practical layout, good internal proportions and the everyday features buyers actually need: parking, a south facing garden, a utility room, and three good sized bedrooms.<br/></p><p>The house opens into a long entrance hall, giving the ground floor a clear sense of order from the start. The staircase rises through the centre of the home, with the kitchen positioned towards the front, the living room set quietly to the rear, and the cloakroom and utility arranged off the same main hall. It is a layout that works well for family life, keeping the main rooms separate while allowing the house to feel connected and easy to move through.</p><p>The kitchen is a particularly strong part of the ground floor. Generous in size, it has room for a dining table as well as a broad range of fitted storage and worktop space. Timber-fronted units wrap around the room, with tiled splashbacks, recessed lighting, an integrated dishwasher and a range-style cooker set beneath a black extractor. The result is a proper kitchen/dining space rather than a narrow cooking area, giving the home a useful everyday hub for meals, homework, conversation and the normal rhythm of family life.</p><p>To the rear, the living room provides a comfortable separate reception space, with a wide window looking towards the garden. Its proportions allow for sofas, storage and media furniture without the room feeling crowded, and its position away from the kitchen gives the house a quieter sitting room for the evenings.</p><p>Beyond the hall, the utility room adds another layer of practicality. Fitted with shaker-style cabinetry, work surfaces and space for laundry appliances, it keeps washing and household storage away from the kitchen. A Belfast-style sink, rear garden access, vaulted ceiling and Velux window make it much more than a basic utility, bringing in light from above and giving the rear of the ground floor a genuinely useful working space.<br/></p><p>Upstairs, the landing gives access to all three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The main bedroom sits to the rear and is a comfortable double, with space for a large bed and additional furniture. The second bedroom is also a strong double, currently arranged as a combined sitting and work space, and benefits from fitted mirrored wardrobes. The third bedroom is a well-shaped single, large enough to work as a child’s room, nursery, dressing room or home office, giving the house flexibility as needs change.</p><p>The bathroom has been recently renovated and feels fresh, bright and low-maintenance. A bath with glazed screen and rainfall-style shower sits against large-format tiling, with a vanity wash basin, WC and obscure-glazed window completing the room. It is a smart family bathroom that does not feel like an immediate project for the next owner.</p><p>Outside, the home benefits from its end-of-terrace position, with side access leading through to the rear garden. To the front, there is off-street parking, along with a simple planted approach and a blue front door that gives the house a welcoming point of character. The rear garden faces south-west and is arranged with lawn, paved seating areas, planted borders and enclosed fencing, creating a practical space for children, pets, outdoor dining or summer use.</p><br/>EPC Rating: C
