Set within the handsome Georgian-style conversion of Oriel House on North Hill, this two-bedroom duplex offers compact, city-centre living across three levels. The open-plan ground-floor living space benefits from large sash-style windows and a private balcony, bringing plenty of light and an outdoor spot for morning coffee.
The principal bedroom includes an en suite, while a further double bedroom and a contemporary family bathroom complete the layout. The apartment is presented in modern, low-maintenance finishes with hardwood-effect floors and recessed lighting, making it move-in ready for professionals or first-time buyers.
Practical extras include off-street parking, a secure entry system and a long lease (approximately 125 years). Note the property is leasehold with an average annual service charge of around £1,500 and a ground rent of £250, and it sits in an area with a higher local crime rate—factors to consider alongside its strong commuter links and central location.
This home will suit buyers seeking a well-presented, low-upkeep base near Colchester North Station and the city centre. It also presents a straightforward option for investors after a centrally located rental with good transport access.
