This modern four-bedroom town house on Secundus Drive offers flexible family living minutes from Colchester’s historic city centre. Built 2003–2006, the home benefits from contemporary fixtures, double glazing and gas central heating, with a sizeable master bedroom, walk-in wardrobe and an unusual galleried room that works well as an office or play space.
The ground floor features a long kitchen/dining area that opens onto a private rear garden, plus undercover parking leading into a single garage. First-floor reception space is bright and can be used as a formal lounge or an additional bedroom, so the layout adapts to changing family needs. Local schools rated Good are within easy reach, and buses and leisure amenities are nearby.
Buyers should note the plot and overall property footprint are described as small and the home sits in an area classified with higher deprivation indicators; crime is average. Total internal area is about 951 sq ft, so rooms are well proportioned but not generous throughout. Council tax is moderate.
Overall this is a practical, well-presented family townhouse with useful parking and a flexible interior layout. It will suit buyers seeking convenient city-edge living and scope to personalise rooms, but those needing larger gardens or very spacious rooms should allow for the compact plot and footprint.
