Head of distribution, Luke De Stefano said: "The development itself is perfectly positioned within a quarter mile of Braintree station, offering direct links into London within the hour.

"Additionally, the popular town is on the doorstep of the newly named Braintree Village shopping centre, has a large investment plan set out by the council, whilst remaining one of the Top 10 spots in Essex to rent.

"The popular town and it’s beautiful surrounding villages offer a wealth of heritage as well as all the amenities that are needed from any town, yet it has remained a hidden gem and truly provides everything one would require and a perfect place to live, as more people look to move farther afield."
