A beautifully presented three double bedroom home, combining attractive period-inspired architecture with stylish, well-appointed interiors. Highlights include two generous reception rooms, a modern fitted kitchen, en-suite facilities, an established rear garden and a substantial double-width garage.
Location
The property occupies a highly convenient central Colchester position, within a stone's throw of everyday amenities including Budgens and Sainsbury's Local. Colchester city centre is within easy reach, offering an extensive selection of shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and services, while nearby Abbey Fields provides valuable open green space. The area is also well served by established bus routes connecting with the city centre and neighbouring towns and villages, together with a good selection of primary and secondary schools.
Property
The accommodation begins with an inviting entrance hall, finished in warm tones with wood-effect flooring and a staircase rising to the first floor. A ground floor WC is conveniently positioned off the hall.
To the front is a separate dining room, a bright and versatile reception space featuring shuttered windows and ample room for a large dining table. The principal sitting room is particularly impressive, extending across the rear of the property and enjoying direct access onto the garden through striking black-framed glazed doors. A feature fireplace provides an attractive focal point, complemented by decorative cornicing and wood-effect flooring.
The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of dark shaker-style cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and a pastel tiled splashback. An exposed brick feature wall adds character, while a traditional-style range cooker forms the centrepiece of the room.

On the first floor, a central landing provides access to three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom with a modern suite and bath with shower facilities.
Outside, the rear garden provides a pleasant and relatively private space, predominantly laid to lawn with a paved terrace immediately adjoining the house, ideal for outdoor seating and entertaining. A particular advantage is the substantial double-width garage/outbuilding, providing excellent parking, storage or workshop potential.
