PROPERTY
A wonderfully appointed two double bedroom detached bungalow set within grounds approaching 3.5 acres (STS), with huge potential for extension (STPP).
The vendors did have full planning permission in 2009 to extend the property. The full details of the application can be downloaded on the Braintree District Planning Portal. We have included a link below detailing the latter.
(
Further to this, the vendors have also commissioned an architect to draw up plans to add another floor to the existing property therefore creating even more living space. These drawings are available on request. Please be advised that a formal planning application was not put forward for the addition of the extra floor.
Although the property itself, presents very well inside, there will be work to be done to the outside.
In its current form, the property offers generous living accommodation traditionally over one level with an impressive entrance hallway, a delightful and very well-equipped kitchen/dining room complete with a millennium limited edition AGA and French doors opening on to the patio, a spacious reception room with a magnificent feature fire place with multi fuel burner and solid parquet oak wood floors leading to a bright and airy garden/dining room. The master bedroom has the added benefit of fitted storage and a personal en-suite. There is a further spacious double bedroom also with plenty of storage and an ever-useful utility room.

VENDOR'S INSIGHT Located on the north side of the Essex village of Birdbrook, approximately four-miles south-east of Haverhill on the Suffolk/Cambridgeshire border, Sunnybank sits within a delightful 3.5-acre plot of well laid-out gardens, ponds, ancient trees, a ninety-five-tree apple, plum and pear orchard and outbuildings with planning permission for a two-storey building. A pretty looking bungalow with a striking frontage, the house was designed and built in 2004 to a high standard by the current owners to be traditional yet modern. 'We built the house using the best quality materials possible and it has some wonderful character features. The quiet and convenient location surrounded by countryside was a huge attraction; it's very peaceful yet situated just ten minutes away from the local shops,' say the owners. This property offers a wonderful lifestyle as it stands, but with so much space, planning permission and various outbuildings there's great potential to extend and expand this unique home.
Birdbrook is a lovely village with a friendly pub close to the towns of Haverhill, Sudbury and Clare, all of which have good amenities. There are a variety of rural schools nearby, with a good selection of both primary and secondary education in the market town of Haverhill. The village enjoys good public transport links with local villages and towns.
'The house is very warm and welcoming with beautiful gardens that are lovely to wander around for hours on end. There's cabling for the facility of floodlighting the grounds and cable laid around the whole boundary of the property for a security system if required.'
'Our favourite room has to be the lounge with its sunny aspect and beautiful character fireplace, in the winter months it's very cosy - a lovely place to spend time. The kitchen has a brand-new Millennium Limited Edition AGA.'
'The grounds are very peaceful with a kind of calming resonance - there's an abundance of visiting wildlife, including owls and rare birds. There are many wonderful areas to sit and enjoy the different views, whether by one of the ponds or by the pretty pavilion with its beautiful dovecotes. During springtime you'll be able to enjoy watching the 100,000 daffodils burst into flower which we planted.'
'We're really going to miss the peace and quiet, the wonderful wildlife and the beautiful gardens.'
LOCATION Sunnybank is located in the small hamlet of New England on the edge of the attractive northwest Essex village of Birdbrook, which is on the Essex/Suffolk borders. There are good local facilities available in the nearby market towns of Haverhill and Clare. More comprehensive facilities are available in Newmarket, the home of English horse racing, the medieval town of Saffron Walden and the high tech University City of Cambridge. For the commuter there is a fast and regular train service from Audley End train station serving Cambridge and London's Liverpool Street (45 minutes journey) and the A1307 provides easy access to the A11 and M11.
