Description

An Immaculate, High-Specification Three Bedroom Family Home on an Exceptional Corner Plot in the Heart of West Bergholt

Situated in the highly sought-after village of West Bergholt, to the north-west of Colchester, this beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a fully modernised property finished to an exceptional standard throughout. Positioned on a generous corner plot, the home enjoys considerable kerb appeal and offers clear potential to extend to the side (subject to the necessary planning consents), making it a perfect long-term family home.

The property is approached via a large gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking for up to four vehicles. The front garden is fully enclosed, offering both privacy and practicality, while gated side access leads to the stunning rear garden—expertly landscaped to provide multiple decked seating areas, well-maintained lawns, and an array of useful sheds, ideal for storage or hobbies.

Upon entering the home via a welcoming porch, you are greeted by a bright entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. The ground floor accommodation has been thoughtfully designed with modern family living in mind. A spacious lounge to the front features a striking wood-burning stove, creating a cosy and inviting space to relax. To the rear, the standout feature of this home is undoubtedly the exceptional open-plan kitchen/dining room. Stylishly appointed and flooded with natural light via bi-folding doors, this space opens seamlessly onto the rear garden—perfect for entertaining and indoor/outdoor living. The kitchen is fitted with a range of high-quality units, a range cooker (to remain), space for appliances, and a built-in larder cupboard providing valuable storage. A modern ground floor bathroom with a shower over the bath completes the downstairs layout.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en suite shower room and built-in storage cupboards, while the additional two bedrooms are equally spacious and ideal for children, guests, or home office use.

West Bergholt is a vibrant and well-connected village offering an exceptional quality of life. Local amenities include the highly regarded Heathlands Primary School, two welcoming public houses, a Co-op store with Post Office, doctors’ surgery, pharmacy, hairdressers, and a traditional fish & chip shop. The village also enjoys excellent transport links, with easy access to the A12 and Colchester's mainline railway station, offering fast services to London Liverpool Street.

This is a truly outstanding property in a prime location, ideal for discerning buyers seeking a turnkey home with both style and substance. Early viewing is strongly advised to appreciate all that this exceptional home has to offer.
