The property
Jasmine Cottage is for sale for the first time in decades and offers an opportunity to create a family home that makes good use of its pleasant grounds and outlook.
The house needs modernisation including the completion of the removal of the chimney stack from between the dining room and sitting room and a refit of the kitchen, bathroom and WC.
Given its good-sized plot (0.22 acres), the property warrants a side extension (stp), however buyers may choose to investigate the potential for replacing the dwelling with a new property positioned further back from Bentley Road.
Location
The cottage is located in a rural position in Little Bentley, around four miles to the south of Manningtree, around nine miles from Colchester and around 11 miles from Harwich.
