Description

An exceptional four bedroom detached home, quietly positioned within the highly regarded Braiswick Lane development on the outskirts of Colchester.

Built by the highly respected Mersea Homes, this is a particularly fine example of an individually designed family home, occupying an impressive corner plot within a small and exclusive development of just five properties. The setting is peaceful and private, with the property enjoying an attractive outlook and superb access to Colchester North Station, the A12 and nearby golf course.

From the moment you arrive, the quality and character of the property are immediately apparent. An impressive oak framed porch leads into a welcoming dining hall, where a full-height oak framed window creates a striking first impression and fills the entrance with natural light.

The living room is equally inviting, centred around a log burner and finished with fitted shutters and French doors opening directly onto the rear garden. The current owners have made a number of thoughtful improvements to the property, including the landscaped rear garden, creating a home that is ready to enjoy. The property is also fitted with a security alarm system.

The real centrepiece of the house is the superb kitchen and family room. Generously proportioned and filled with natural light, the room features a vaulted ceiling and roof lights, creating an impressive sense of space. It is a wonderfully versatile room, equally suited to everyday family life, entertaining and relaxed weekends at home. A separate utility room sits conveniently alongside the kitchen, with a ground floor cloakroom completing the accommodation.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a particularly impressive room. Dual aspect windows and a vaulted ceiling provide excellent natural light and a wonderful feeling of space, while two double wardrobes provide ample storage. The room is completed by a stylish en-suite shower room.

There are three further well-proportioned bedrooms, together with a well-appointed family bathroom, providing excellent accommodation for a growing family, visiting guests or those simply looking for additional space to work from home.

Outside, the south facing rear garden has been significantly improved by the current owners and provides a lovely extension of the living accommodation. A substantial patio creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, with the remainder of the garden predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by established trees and shrubs. Lighting has also been thoughtfully incorporated into some of the flower beds, with selected trees illuminated to create an attractive setting during the evening. There is also direct external access into the double garage.

To the front, the property has an imposing presence, with a large shingled driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles. The front garden is enclosed by established shrubs and lawn, while the corner position gives the property an excellent sense of space and privacy.

Braiswick Lane is particularly well placed for those wanting a quieter setting without compromising on convenience. Colchester North Station is within easy reach, providing a fast and convenient mainline service to London Liverpool Street in under an hour. The A12 is also readily accessible, making this an excellent location for commuters travelling throughout Essex and beyond.

The property is also ideally positioned for some of Colchester's most favoured schools, while the nearby golf course and surrounding countryside provide an appealing backdrop to everyday life.

Colchester itself offers an excellent balance of city amenities and open space. The city centre provides an extensive selection of independent cafes, restaurants, bars and shops, while Castle Park and its riverside walks offer a wonderful place to escape and enjoy the outdoors. The University of Essex and its expanding Knowledge Gateway are also within easy reach.

This is a home that genuinely stands apart. Its combination of an exclusive setting, individual design, excellent proportions, quality construction by Mersea Homes, substantial south facing garden and superb transport links makes it a particularly compelling four bedroom family home.

Internal viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the position, proportions and quality of this exceptional property.
