This extended Victorian semi delivers flexible family living across multiple floors, moments from central Colchester and local schools. The house combines period features — a bay-front reception, feature fireplaces and loft-converted master — with a large open-plan kitchen-diner and utility room that suit modern family life.
Upstairs provides comfortable bedroom sizes, a first-floor family bathroom and a second-floor principal bedroom with en-suite and eaves storage. Outside you'll find a private, enclosed rear garden with large patio for entertaining, secure gated side access and a rare front off-street parking space for the area.
Practical considerations are clear: parts of the property are assumed to lack insulation (suspended floor, roof and cavity walls listed as ‘no insulation (assumed)’) and around 62% of lighting is low-energy. There is also a higher local crime rate to note and resident/visitor parking permits are managed by the council. These are straightforward issues for buyers who value location and space and who are willing to invest in energy and security improvements.
Overall this is a sizeable, adaptable family home in a central, affluent neighbourhood with excellent broadband and mobile signal — ideal for buyers seeking city-centre convenience, generous room count and outdoor space. Viewing is recommended to appreciate planning and flow across the house.
