Quiet family home with garden and scope for updating.
Freehold three-bedroom end-of-terrace, built 1976–1982
Guide price £270,000–£280,000. This three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in a quiet cul-de-sac offers straightforward family accommodation on freehold tenure. Built in the late 1970s/early 1980s, the home benefits from double glazing, loft insulation and filled cavity walls for improved thermal performance.
The ground floor provides a bright living room and a modern kitchen/diner with direct access to a private, enclosed rear garden — a practical outdoor space for children or pets. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a single family bathroom; the layout suits first-time buyers, young families, or investors seeking a rental in a city suburb.
Practical points to note: broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, and parking is on-street only. The neighbourhood is classified as very deprived, and external upkeep or cosmetic updating may be required to personalise the property. Flood risk is low and council tax is described as cheap.
Local amenities include nearby primary and secondary schools (several rated Good), bus routes, and easy access toward Colchester city centre and Rowhedge. The property’s straightforward construction and energy measures make it a practical, lower-maintenance choice with scope for improvement and value uplift.
