THE MEAD


An entrance hallway welcomes you to the property with built in storage for coats and shoes. The spacious sitting room is dual aspect with French doors to the patio and cosy log burner.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive kitchen / dining room. This dual aspect room provides direct access to the garden and sun-terrace, making it the ideal spot for entertaining family and friends. There is ample room for a dining table set, whilst the quartz topped kitchen island extends to form a breakfast bar for informal dining.

The well equipped kitchen features a NEFF induction hob set within the breakfast bar, integrated NEFF oven, warming drawer and microwave combination oven. Space is provided for a free-standing dishwasher, wine chiller and American style fridge-freezer. Ample storage is provided by a good array of cupboards and drawers including a very useful larder cupboard.

The sleek design of the kitchen is continued into the utility room where further storage space is provided as well as space and plumbing for both a free-standing washing machine and tumble dryer. A butler sink is set within the quartz worksurface.

Flexibility is added to the accommodation in the form of a triple aspect study / playroom, though this space could easily be utilised as a snug or a more formal dining room as required. The cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Ascending the stairs to the first floor there are four double bedrooms, with the largest three all benefiting from built-in wardrobe storage space. The principal bedroom suite is dual aspect and the accompanying ensuite bathroom features a free-standing double ended bath, walk-in shower with both rainfall shower head and mixer hose attachment, handbasin set within a vanity unit, heated towel rail and wc.

The main guest bedroom is dual aspect to the front of the property with bedrooms three and four located to the rear.

The dual aspect family bathroom completes the internal accommodation and is comprised of a bath with shower screen and electronic shower, pedestal handbasin, heated towel rail and wc.
 

OUTDOOR LIVING

Situated on a private road and approached via a block paved driveway, ample off-road parking is provided for several vehicles in addition to the double garage which has power and light connected.

The generously proportioned, enclosed walled rear garden is mainly laid to lawn whilst the sun-terrace adjacent to the property makes the most of the westerly aspect.

In total this generous plot approaches 0.25 acres (stls).
 

LOCATION


The Mead is well located for easy access to the historic city of Colchester, not least the mainline railway station (less than 1.5 miles away) and which provides connections to London Liverpool Street in around 50 minutes.

The city offers all the recreational, leisure, entertainment, shopping and dining choices expected of a major regional centre as well as excellent schooling options particularly in the private sector.

An equally short distance away is the wonderful North Essex / South Suffolk countryside of the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, providing endless opportunities for walking, cycling and exploring.

The Mead provides the perfect balance for the modern family lifestyle benefitting from a well-connected location for work and schooling, whilst the benefits of the open countryside and charming Essex coastal towns are equally close at hand.
