Stylish four and five bedroom homes offer luxurious living in East Bergholt

St James Place is a desirable new development of exceptional four and five bedroom contemporary homes nestled in the picturesque village of East Bergholt.

Designed and built by long-established, family-run, Hills Residential, they are renowned for their commitment to craftmanship and customer care.  St James Place offers a pleasing variety of house designs which fit in with the local area whilst reflecting demand for spacious, state-of-the-art homes.

Each of these substantial energy-efficient homes has been finished to a high specification, featuring sophisticated bespoke kitchens with integrated Bosch appliances, utility rooms, open-plan living spaces and elegant flooring throughout.  Bathrooms and ensuites feature sleek Roca sanitaryware and Porcelanosa tiling, whilst the warm-light LED downlighters create a subtle ambient glow.

 

The homes at St James Place have been configured to make life easier for those who need to work from home, with superfast broadband and incorporating spaces which could work well as a home office or study.

Seamlessly blending luxury with practicality, each property has a double garage, off-road parking and a generous landscaped garden – with attractive shared green areas that ensure residents have the space to relax and enjoy their new home in a peaceful refined setting.

St James Place is in a tranquil, semi-rural setting with local amenities nearby and excellent transport links.  There are good primary and secondary schools, a pharmacy, bakery, post office and village shop, with mainline services available at nearby Manningtree.

East Bergholt is sometimes mistaken for being in Essex as the postal town is Colchester, however despite having a CO postcode, it is within the Babergh District of Suffolk – around 10 miles north of Colchester and 8 miles south of Ipswich.  The popular villages of Dedham and Flatford, made famous by Gainsborough and Constable, are around 2 miles from St James Place, providing the picture-perfect place for waterside walks – or perhaps a boat trip.

Prices at St James Place start from £799,995.  To arrange a viewing, please contact our Manningtree team on 01206 397222 or find out more below:
