Beverley Road, Lexden, Colchester, Essex, CO3

No chain. Situated within one of Lexden’s most desirable residential roads, this impressive, extended Victorian town house offers generous and versatile accommodation arranged over four levels.

Built in the late 19th century and thoughtfully restored in recent years, this characterful home combines elegant period features with high-quality modern finishes. Distinctive diaper-pattern brickwork and decorative bargeboards lend charm to the exterior, complemented by beautifully proportioned accommodation within.

No. 6 Beverley Road is set behind a low wall topped with railings, with a matching pedestrian gate opening onto a brick-edged, block-paved pathway leading to the entrance. The front garden is laid to lawn with attractive shrub borders.

The beautifully landscaped rear garden enjoys a predominantly westerly aspect. An old red brick wall forms one boundary, complemented by raised shrub borders and extensive paved areas for outdoor seating and entertaining.
