Description

A rare opportunity to acquire the largest apartment within Lieutenant House, a striking conversion of the former Edwardian Officers' Mess at Colchester's historic Meeanee Barracks. Thoughtfully transformed in 2016 into just 17 apartments, the development combines period character with contemporary living in an established and desirable setting.

Perfectly positioned, this remarkable property enjoys attractive views across open green spaces while being just a short stroll from Colchester's vibrant and historic city centre. Offering the ideal blend of tranquillity and convenience, it is superbly connected, with a nearby bus stop and train station providing easy access to the coast, London and Norwich.

With its prime location, rich heritage, and limited availability within this distinguished setting, this is an outstanding opportunity to secure a standout home in one of Colchester’s most desirable settings.

Step inside this truly exceptional ground-floor apartment and you immediately get a sense of where character meets contemporary comfort. Sympathetically restored, this standout home boasts a stunning vaulted ceiling crowned by an impressive sky lantern, flooding the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space with natural light, creating an uplifting environment perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. Once the prestigious billiards room in the Officers’ Mess, this remarkable space carries a unique sense of history while delivering maintenance-free modern luxury.

The sleek, modern fitted kitchen comes fully equipped with high-spec integrated appliances, delivering both style and everyday convenience. Its open-plan layout creates a natural flow into the living and dining areas, maximising the sense of light and space while allowing plenty of flexibility for entertaining, working from home or relaxing.

As the largest apartment within Lieutenant House, the property offers generous proportions throughout, including two spacious double bedrooms, a dressing area within the principal bedroom, and two stylish bathrooms, one of which is en-suite. The property is finished to a high standard with a layout that feels both spacious and practical.

The property features underfloor heating throughout, with individual room thermostats allowing everyone to tailor their space to their ideal temperature. The apartment also benefits from two allocated parking spaces, a valuable addition in such a well-connected location.
