Description

** GUIDE PRICE £400,000 - £425,000 ** Welcome to this truly lovely detached family home, nestled in a desirable area of Colchester. We know how important it is to find a place that feels just right, and this property certainly ticks all the boxes for comfortable family living. With a guide price of £400,000 - £425,000, it represents a fantastic opportunity to secure a home that's ready for you to simply unpack and enjoy.

Step inside and you'll immediately appreciate the care and attention that has gone into maintaining this residence. The layout is wonderfully versatile, offering three reception rooms, which means plenty of space for everyone. Whether you envision a cosy living room for evening relaxation, a dedicated dining area for family meals, or perhaps a playroom for the little ones, the options are plentiful. There's even potential to adapt one of these spaces into a fourth bedroom if your family's needs evolve, offering that extra bit of flexibility that can make all the difference.

The heart of any home is often its living spaces, and here you'll find bright and inviting rooms perfect for creating lasting memories. The kitchen, while functional, offers a great canvas for future enhancements should you wish to put your own stamp on it. A convenient ground floor WC adds to the practicality of the home, especially when entertaining guests.

Upstairs, you'll find three well-proportioned bedrooms, providing comfortable retreats for all family members. The family bathroom is also located on this floor, serving the bedrooms efficiently. Each room benefits from natural light, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The private rear garden is a real gem, offering a peaceful oasis for outdoor enjoyment. Imagine summer barbecues, children playing safely, or simply unwinding with a good book in the sunshine. It's a manageable size, perfect for those who appreciate green space without the burden of extensive upkeep. For your vehicles, there's a garage and a driveway, providing ample off-road parking, which we know is always a bonus in any family home.

Colchester itself is a vibrant and historic town, offering a fantastic array of amenities, excellent schools, and convenient transport links. We pride ourselves on our local knowledge across Essex and Suffolk, and we can confidently say that this location offers a wonderful balance of community feel and accessibility. This home isn't just a house; it's a place where new chapters begin, where laughter fills the rooms, and where memories are made. We genuinely believe you'll fall in love with its charm and practicality. Don't miss out on the chance to make this delightful property your own; it's truly a 'move straight in' opportunity that doesn't come along every day.

Industry affiliations:

Harris + Wood exists for one clear purpose: to achieve the very best price for your home through world-class marketing and exceptional customer service.

Every instruction is treated with care, discretion and a clear focus on delivering outstanding results. Central to our success is our use of cutting-edge technology and data-driven insight.

Before your home is launched to the portals, we gather first-hand, pre-market feedback from active buyers to fine-tune your pricing strategy, presentation and overall market positioning.
