The layout offers a generous lounge, kitchen with breakfast bar, conservatory and a useful ground-floor study, providing flexible living space for homeworking and family evenings.
Outside, a wide block‑paved driveway and single garage provide good parking, and the rear garden with patio and lawn delivers a private, child-friendly outdoor space.

Built in the late 1970s, the house is comfortable and largely ready to move into but offers clear potential to update kitchen, bathroom and internal finishes to your taste. There is a single family bathroom serving four bedrooms, so purchasers should consider whether an additional bathroom or en-suite is needed.

Colne Engaine is a thriving village with a primary school, local shop and pub, countryside walks and good road links to Colchester, Braintree and Stansted. This home will suit growing families who value a peaceful village setting with straightforward access to commuter routes and local amenities.
