Description
Set in a highly sought after location within walking distance of Colchester City Centre, Abbey Fields and in catchment area for St John's Green Primary School and close to Hamilton Primary School and Colchester Grammar School.
Welcome to Blacksmith Lane
Proudly sitting in a prominent spot on the corner of Blacksmith Lane, you will discover this stunning three-bedroom detached family home. First impressions will not disappoint with its rich red brick finish, carport to the side, and wide meandering pathways leading to convenient cut-through paths to Colchester City Centre, Abbey Fields, and beyond.
Home Sweet Home
Step into a pleasantly spacious hallway with beautiful Karndean wooden flooring throughout. There is ample space for stowing away coats and shoes, along with additional understairs storage facilities. The hallway provides access to all main rooms, including the living room to your right, the ground floor WC, and the kitchen.
Space to relax
The living room is a delightful space with large windows that pour in plenty of natural light and double doors that open out into the garden. Tastefully muted tones and Karndean flooring flow through this room, creating a harmonious and homely feel.
Heart of the home
The kitchen is a well-designed space, ideal for busy family mornings, with room for a breakfast table and dual aspect windows that provide plenty of natural light. It features a range of white wall and base units complemented by chrome handles and beautifully contrasted by a neutral beige speckled worktop. Additionally, the layout includes space for further storage solutions to the side of the kitchen. Built-in appliances include a washer/dryer, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and gas hob.
First Floor
Take the wooden-banistered staircase to the first floor, where three bedrooms rooms can be found (one with ensuite) and a family bathroom.
Refresh & Renew
The main family bathroom is generously sized and gleams brightly with an attractive pearlescent effect tiled finish, beautifully contrasted by the dark flooring. With separate white panelled bath, obscure glass window and extractor.
Master Bedroom
Enter the master bedroom, with dual aspect windows and plenty of space for storage solutions, including a built-in wardrobe as you walk in. The room leads to a shower ensuite which features the same attractive tiling as the main bathroom, complemented by stylish dark flooring.
The second bedroom is spacious in size with dual aspect windows and plenty of space for both a desk and wardrobe. The third bedroom is located to the end of the hallway with side aspect window and neutral décor throughout.
Step outside...
Outside, the garden has been thoughtfully designed by the current owners to be both low maintenance and ideal for entertaining, complete with a beautiful arched trellis.
At the rear of the garden, you will find an insulated outbuilding with power and lighting, offering versatile use as an outdoor office, gym, or perhaps an additional entertainment space.
A patio pathway leads down the side of the garden to a rear gate, which opens onto the allocated carport that can accommodate up to three cars.
Beyond the back of the garden is a listed building, this is currently being sympathtically converted to beautiful 3 bedroom houses, which is a tremendous improvement to seeing a derilict building from the garden. Once this is complete we estimate the value of the property to increase significantly, so this is an ideal time to buy!
This has been a well-loved and cherished house that will make the perfect family home or alternatively an attractive investment opportunity.
