About The Paddocks
The Paddocks is an established new build development by Countryside Homes, now part of the Vistry Group, located on Braintree Road in the attractive village of Cressing, Essex (CM77 8JE). The development originally offered a collection of 2- to 5-bedroom traditional style new build homes, designed with a focus on community through an informal, tree-lined avenue, abundant green spaces, a new village green, and a play area. Note on Availability: The Paddocks is nearing completion, with the final home remaining as of the current status: a four-bedroom detached house of 'The Chelmer' house type.
Specific Pricing & Tenure: The last available property, 'The Chelmer' (Home 120), is currently priced from £569,995 and is offered with Freehold tenure. Purchasers should note an estimated annual estate charge of £372 to contribute to the maintenance of the communal green spaces and play areas. The Chelmer is a four-bedroom detached home constructed using Masonry Cavity Construction and comes with an Indicative EPC Rating of B. Designed for modern family living, the ground floor layout is highly functional, featuring a separate living room and a dedicated dining room, alongside a key open-plan kitchen/family/dining area that provides direct access to the rear garden. This final property, which is ‘Ready to Move Into,’ benefits from an excellent all-inclusive specification. This includes a full flooring package, turf to the rear garden (which is south-facing for maximum sunlight), a garage, and built-in storage space. A practical utility room is situated off the kitchen area. The first floor hosts a generously-sized principal bedroom complete with a luxurious private en-suite bathroom, three further double bedrooms, and a well-appointed family bathroom. All homes at The Paddocks come with a 10-Year NHBC Warranty, providing long-term assurance. Cressing is a charming village situated conveniently between the larger towns of Braintree and Witham. The development is highly suited for commuters due to its exceptional transport links. Specific Transport Links: Rail: Cressing (Essex) train station is approximately 0.5 miles from the development.
