The Cloisters, Braintree, Essex, CM7

---Quote Ref: 817194 when calling--- This is one of those homes that gives you the space you need day-to-day, but also has that one feature everyone will remember: the garden and swimming pool. Set in Bocking, Braintree, this four-bedroom detached home offers over 2,000 sq ft of accommodation, with a layout that works brilliantly for family life. There is plenty of room to come together, but also enough separate spaces for everyone to have their own corner when needed. The ground floor offers a generous lounge, dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, sitting room, playroom and office, giving the home a really flexible feel. Whether you need space to work, space for children, a place to host, or simply a home that does not feel cramped, this layout offers options. There is also a downstairs cloakroom, parking to the front and a huge garage, all adding to the practicality of the home. Upstairs, the space continues to impress. The main bedroom is a brilliant size, with its own en-suite area including a large shower, separate WC and sink, along with a vanity area that gives the room a really useful extra touch. There are three further bedrooms, all with great built-in storage, making the upstairs feel practical as well as spacious. It is a layout that works well for families, guests or anyone needing bedrooms that can adapt as life changes. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Outside is where this home becomes even more memorable. The garden has been lovingly established over time, with mature planting, different seating areas, a pond and a real sense of privacy. Tucked within the garden is the swimming pool, the standout feature that makes this home feel completely different from so many others on the market. Beside the pool, there is also a charming pool house/garden room with a beach-hut feel. While it houses the pool pump system, it has also been set up with seating, giving you another lovely spot to enjoy the garden. It could be used as a relaxed poolside hideaway, a separate garden room or simply somewhere to sit back while the pool is in use. It is easy to imagine this being the space everyone gravitates towards in the summer. The doors open, the pool in use, the garden full of colour and the house working as the backdrop to it all. It is not just extra outdoor space; it is a lifestyle. Bocking is a popular part of Braintree, giving you a more tucked-away residential setting while still keeping everyday life easy. Shops, schools, leisure facilities, Braintree Village and the train station are all within reach, with connections towards London Liverpool Street and good road links across Essex. This is a home with space, flexibility and a real wow factor outside. The pool may be what first catches your attention, but the whole property is what makes it such a brilliant long-term family home.
