Woodpecker Close, Halstead, Essex

No Onward Chain!
An Impressive Four-Bedroom Detached Home with Home Office and Stunning Views Over the River Colne and Open Countryside

This attractive double-fronted detached house enjoys a peaceful position with picturesque views over surrounding fields and the River Colne. Built by Bellway in 2019 this home as been meticulously improved over the years and cared for by the current owner.

Inside, the home has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, enhanced by high-quality finishes such as oak internal doors and stylish Amtico flooring. The central hallway leads to a superb open-plan kitchen/family room—ideal for entertaining and day-to-day family life. This bright, sociable space features high-gloss units, quartz worktops with matching splashbacks, and French doors that open out to the rear garden.

Opposite the kitchen is a spacious and comfortable living room, also with French doors to the garden, creating a great connection between indoor and outdoor living. A separate study/playroom and a downstairs cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys stunning, uninterrupted views across open countryside and the River Colne. It also benefits from a built-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. There are three additional bedrooms—two generous doubles and a single—plus a contemporary family bathroom.

To the side of the property, a tandem-length garage has been partially converted to create additional living space, including a utility area and a home office/playroom. Off-road parking is available in front of the garage.

The rear garden is thoughtfully landscaped with a patio for outdoor dining, a second patio at the back, low-maintenance Astro turf, a pathway, and a useful garden shed.

Located in the quiet cul-de-sac of Woodpecker Close, this home forms part of a small, exclusive development of just four homes built in 2019 by Bellway. The property enjoys a tranquil setting overlooking a small copse rich in local wildlife, including muntjac deer and owls. Beyond this, open countryside and the scenic River Colne create a wonderful natural backdrop.

Woodpecker Close links directly to the River Walk, a picturesque trail that follows the River Colne into the heart of Halstead, where you’ll find a variety of shops, cafes, schools, and other amenities.
