This extended detached family house in Langenhoe offers flexible living across four or five bedrooms and three reception rooms, all arranged around a generous open-plan kitchen/dining/family space. The property sits on a large plot with established front and rear gardens, a double garage and ample off-street parking—well suited to families who need space for cars, hobbies or storage.
Internally the home feels modern and practical: double glazing, mains gas central heating and a utility room plus cloakroom add day-to-day convenience. The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite and there is an additional shower room; the layout works well for multigenerational living or home working. Local attributes—very low crime, excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and nearby good and independent schools—support comfortable family life.
Notable limitations are straightforward and factual. The overall internal floor area is modest at c.969 sq ft for a five-bedroom property, so some rooms will be compact. The glazing install date is unknown and there is no record here of recent major refurbishments; prospective buyers should budget for possible modernisation to suit contemporary tastes. One nearby secondary school mentioned is rated Inadequate; however other local primary and independent schools are rated Good or highly placed.
Offered on a freehold basis with no flood risk, this home suits families seeking a peaceful village setting close to Colchester, or buyers wanting a large plot with potential to update interiors. It’s a practical, rare extended detached house on this development—bring a plan for modest improvement to unlock its full potential.
