Easthorpe Road, Easthorpe, Colchester, CO5

Part of our Signature collection, this well-proportioned three bedroom detached bungalow is beautifully situated in the charming Essex hamlet of Easthorpe. The property requires modernisation throughout and occupies a fantastic plot of 1.5 acres with picturesque countryside views.

The accommodation at "The Firs" begins with a bright entrance hall with a large floor to ceiling double glazed window to the front aspect, a useful storage cupboard, and doors leading to all primary rooms.

At the front of the property is the generously sized lounge/dining room which benefits from two patio doors, an open fireplace with brick built surround, and doors leading to the third bedroom, kitchen, and back through to the entrance hall.

The kitchen has been fitted with matching base and eye level units with worktops over, an inset stainless steel sink with drainer, and space/plumbing for freestanding appliances. Off the kitchen is the utility room with a double glazed UPVC door leading out to the rear garden and additional space for appliances or storage.

The principal bedroom is of a very good size and has dual aspect windows to both the rear and front along with fitted wardrobes and a dressing table.

The second bedroom looks over the rear garden and also benefits from fitted wardrobes.

The bathroom comprises a paneled bath with a shower over, a hand wash basin, low level WC, part tiled walls, the loft hatch and a double glazed obscured window to the rear.

Outside
The property is set back from Easthorpe Road, with the 1.5 acres of gardens being accessed via electric remoted controlled gates. A large driveway at the front provides ample off road parking for numerous vehicles and leads to a single garage. The garage has been fitted with power, lighting, an electric up and over door at the front, and houses the oil fired boiler.
The garden is mainly laid to lawn with an array of mature and well established bushes, plants and trees. Most boundaries are clearly visible apart from the left hand side which is slightly overgrown at the moment. A viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate the scope, potential, and position.
