Description

David Martin Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this substantial plot, benefitting from full planning permission granted by Maldon District Council for the construction of an impressive five-bedroom, two-storey detached family residence, set within grounds approaching one acre. This rare opportunity allows purchasers to create a bespoke home tailored to their specification, with the proposed residence offering generous accommodation suited to modern family living. Positioned well back from the road and approached via a private lane, the plot enjoys privacy and seclusion. Extending to approximately one acre, it offers exceptional privacy and grounds. Located in the highly sought-after village of Little Braxted, the setting provides an enviable blend of exclusivity and semi-rural charm while remaining accessible to nearby amenities and transport links, making this an outstanding opportunity to build a distinguished family home in a prestigious village location.

LOCATION & LIFESTYLE Situated in the picturesque village of Little Braxted, this property enjoys a peaceful rural setting just 1.3 miles from Wickham Bishops with its range of local amenities, and only 1.5 miles from Benton Hall Golf and Country Club, offering golf, health and leisure facilities.

Little Braxted is a charming and historic Essex village renowned for the beautiful St Nicholas Church, a remarkable 12th-century church celebrated for its richly decorated Victorian stencilled interiors. The village is also home to The Green Man, a traditional and well-regarded public house offering a welcoming atmosphere and popular dining spot for residents and visitors alike.

Despite its tranquil countryside setting, the village is conveniently located near the A12 and within easy reach of Witham, providing excellent transport links including mainline rail services into London Liverpool Street.

VIEWING NOTICE All viewings for this opportunity must be arranged in advance and will be accompanied by a member of David Martin Estate Agents.
