About this property

A beautifully presented period one bedroom cottage on Church Street, set within the historic village setting of Bocking and away from the main road, this characterful home blends charm, comfort and convenience, making it an excellent first time purchase. Positioned just north of Braintree, the property benefits from easy access to local amenities, attractive green spaces and reliable public transport connections.

Property overview

This delightful cottage opens with a welcoming porch, leading into a cosy lounge featuring an exposed brick wall and a striking woodburning stove, enhancing the home’s period appeal. The lounge flows into a well arranged kitchen–breakfast room, offering space for a small dining table along with fitted white goods and cooking facilities. A rear door provides direct access to the private courtyard, ideal for low maintenance outdoor enjoyment.

Upstairs, the property offers a spacious double bedroom with further character features and a generous bathroom, unusually large for a cottage of this style.

To the front, a private driveway provides offroad parking for one vehicle—an invaluable asset in this soughtafter location.

Local area

The cottage is ideally placed for enjoying nearby green spaces, including the beautifully maintained Bocking Public Gardens. Bocking retains a village feel while providing convenient access to shops, cafés, and essential services in Braintree.

This charming cottage offers a rare opportunity to secure a characterful home in a desirable village setting, perfectly suited to first time buyers seeking comfort, convenience and period charm.
