This Victorian mid-terrace offers a compact, characterful two-bedroom home in central Colchester, ideal for first-time buyers or investors seeking strong rental demand. Period features such as an open fireplace, timber floorboards and high ceilings give immediate charm, while the house sits within easy walking distance of shops, Castle Park and Colchester North Station.
The layout includes a bright front reception, a second reception/dining room leading to a fitted kitchen with space and plumbing for appliances, and two double bedrooms upstairs served by a tiled family bathroom. A private, enclosed rear garden and small walled front forecourt provide outdoor space uncommon for a city-centre terrace. The property is sold freehold and chain free, making a quick move or letting straightforward.
Practical points are clear: the home has a mains gas boiler with radiators, an EPC band D (approx. score 50), and assumed solid-brick walls with no added insulation — occupants may want to budget for energy-efficiency improvements. On-street residents’ permit and visitor parking are available but there is no off-street parking. Local crime levels are higher than average for the area, which should be considered alongside the central location and strong transport links.
Overall this is a compact, well-located period terrace that will suit a buyer seeking city-centre convenience and character, and who is comfortable carrying out modest updating and energy-efficiency works to maximise comfort and long-term value.
