Summary - OPEN ACRES INWORTH LANE WAKES COLNE COLCHESTER CO6 2BE
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Generous garden, versatile living and easy access to Chappel station.
Detached four-bedroom family home with countryside views
Set on a generous corner plot in a peaceful country lane, Open Acres is a spacious four-bedroom detached family home with broad countryside views. The ground floor offers flexible living with multiple reception rooms, a practical utility, downstairs cloakroom and an attached workshop — useful for hobbies or storage. The rear garden is a standout, with a wide patio, pergola, pond, decked terrace, summerhouse, productive vegetable area and greenhouse.
Upstairs provides four well-proportioned bedrooms including a principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite, plus a large family bathroom with bath and separate shower. The property benefits from extensive off-street parking on a gravel forecourt and shingled area, providing space for several vehicles. Its semi-rural location gives easy access to Chappel station, local amenities and Colchester while retaining a tranquil, private setting.
Practical points to note: the house was built in the 1950s–1960s and uses oil-fired central heating (private supply). The double glazing install date is unknown. Council tax is high. The accommodation and finishes are consistent with period family homes and there is scope for internal reconfiguration or modernisation to suit contemporary tastes.
Offered with no onward chain, this property will suit a family seeking generous outside space and flexible internal layout, or buyers wanting a countryside base with good transport links. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the plot, garden features and conversion potential.
