Description
The current owners have invested significantly in the property, carefully updating, extending and improving the house to create a modern and highly practical family home, while retaining generous proportions, excellent storage and extensive outside space.
One of the property's particular strengths is its location. Despite its quiet and secluded setting, everyday amenities are within easy walking distance, including Tesco Extra, local shops, post office and pub, while High Woods Country Park, local schools, Colchester General Hospital and Colchester North railway station are all readily accessible. The area also provides excellent access to the A12/A120, with direct mainline rail services to London Liverpool Street.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall, dedicated study/home office and
ground-floor cloakroom/WC. The impressive living room provides a superb family and entertaining space and features a bespoke built-in media wall, 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos cinema system and decorative acoustic wall panelling.
At the heart of the home is the contemporary open-plan kitchen/dining room, with modern units, integrated appliances and French doors providing a natural connection to the rear garden. A generous separate utility room provides additional practicality.
Upstairs, the first floor provides four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, together with a modern family bathroom.
Planning permission is currently in place to extend at first-floor level above the existing utility room to create a substantial walk-in wardrobe/dressing room adjoining the principal bedroom (Planning Ref: 250266), providing a future owner with the opportunity to further enhance the accommodation.
Storage is another strength of the property, with easy access to a large boarded and illuminated loft, providing excellent readily accessible storage.

A further gated entrance provides access to a substantial block-paved area to the side of the property, offering valuable additional secure parking suitable for a large vehicle, motorhome, caravan or boat. The sunny and private rear garden has been landscaped with both entertaining and low-maintenance family living in mind. It incorporates artificial lawn, a generous entertaining patio and hot tub, together with composite fencing, hardwired garden lighting and numerous conveniently positioned outdoor power points. A discreetly tucked-away storage area provides useful space for gardening and maintenance equipment, while a (truncated)
