Minutes from Colchester North station with a private west-facing garden and fast broadband.
Chain free — quick completion possible
Set just moments from Colchester North station, this Victorian semi offers practical city living with commuter convenience. The property includes two reception rooms, two/three bedrooms and a ground-floor bathroom, arranged across a compact 636 sq ft layout suited to a first purchase or buy-to-let.
Highlights include a private west-facing rear garden for evening sun, double glazing installed since 2002, mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The house is freehold and offered chain free, allowing a quicker move for buyers or investors.
Buyers should note the home sits on a small plot and has a modest overall footprint; internal space is limited. Built before 1900 with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated), the property may benefit from energy-efficiency improvements and some updating to maximise comfort and value. There is a single bathroom and typical Victorian room proportions and ceiling heights.
Nearby schools include several rated Good, and local amenities and transport links are within easy walking distance. For someone seeking a well-located, characterful starter home or a commuter-friendly investment, this property balances location and potential, but it requires realistic expectations about size and likely improvement costs.
