Summary - 74 LEXDEN ROAD COLCHESTER CO3 3SP
4 bed 3 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious historic property close to top schools and rail links.
Over 4,000 sq ft of accommodation across multiple reception rooms
An imposing Edwardian residence offering generous, light-filled living across over 4,000 sq ft. High ceilings, original stonework and bay windows give period character, while a large double-height glazed extension creates a contemporary family hub. The property sits on an impressive plot of about 0.67 acres with mature borders and a private lawn.
Accommodation includes a large principal suite with dressing area and en-suite, three further bedrooms, four well-proportioned reception rooms and a renovated cellar. The striking kitchen/dining/family room with vaulted glass doors is the social heart; a separate second kitchen/utility supports entertaining and multi-generational use. There is plentiful off-street parking and a substantial garage with wooden double doors and potential to convert, subject to planning.
Practical considerations: the house dates from the early 20th century so ongoing maintenance and period repair costs should be expected. Cavity walls are recorded as uninsulated (assumed), council tax is described as quite expensive, and the large plot requires regular upkeep. Overall, this is a rare, substantial home in a prime Lexden location, well suited to buyers seeking space, school access and scope for personalization.
