Tiptree Wood - SOLD, Essex - Nearly 2 ½ acres, £29,000
Situated in the easterly part of a much larger woodland known as Chantry Wood, Tiptree Wood is a stunning woodland offering owners a variety of habitats to enjoy.
Absolutely amazing Coastal redwoods stand watch over the northern end of the wood . As you approach via a picturesque woodland ride you become aware that you are already in a special woodland, an island of tranquillity. Tiptree Wood is wonderfully secluded, yet very accessible and filled with mature beech, oaks and hornbeams.
A large fallen tree offers a perfect hiding place for children, a seat has been cut into the top of it as a look-out post. Whilst the gently sloping bank makes a peaceful spot to picnic or place to just sit and contemplate this beautiful wood.
Tiptree Wood is surrounded by other areas of private woodland, the benefits of this being evident in the diversity of wildlife and habitat. Muntjac deer, hares and squirrels can be found along with over 30 species of bird. You may find woodpecker holes and woodcock feeding in the damp undergrowth close to the ditch.
Conveniently located - just ten minutes from the A12 and 30 miles from the M25. There are excellent local services including pubs and a village store within a short drive.
Because the woodland is so special it has a tree preservation order on it and is protected by the local authority. This simply protects the woodland and does not prevent woodland management -free guidance is available from the Forestry Commission and other organisations.
Particulars and plans were prepared by our local manager, Matt Marples.
The purchasers of the woodland will be asked to enter into a covenant to ensure the quiet and peaceful enjoyment of adjoining woodlands and meadows.

Directions
- From the exit of the A12 sign posted Witham go past the petrol station then straight over the roundabout onto Hatfield Road and then after about a quarter of a mile turn right into Maltings Lane.
- Continue straight over the round about until you stop at the 'T' junction of Spring lane.
- Turn right and continue under the bridge until you come to some part time traffic lights turning left into Blue Mills Hill sign posted Wickham Bishops / Golf Club.
- Carry on over the narrow river bridge and up the hill with woodland on your left. Just before the no overtaking sign there is a wooden five bar gate with our sign attached.
- Go past this gate and park at the third gate. This is a double wooden gate with a double metal gate 10 meters behind it and runs alongside the first house.
- Please park to one side of the gate so as not to block the access and please watch your safety on the road.
- Climb over the gates with care and continue along the access track. There is a hard standing just past the gates. A ride runs off from this to the right at approximately 45 degrees from the main access track. Walk along this track and after a couple of hundred metres you will reach a junction marked by a beautiful coastal Redwood.
- Turn right at the junction and the entrance to Tiptree Wood is 90 metres further on your right. The woods boundaries are indicated by lime green markings.
