Spacious five-bedroom house with large garden and ample parking for family living.
Extended five-bedroom semi-detached family home
This extended five-bedroom semi delivers genuine family space in the heart of Elmstead Market. The ground floor flows from a modern kitchen into a bright sitting room with bi-fold doors to a south-facing garden — ideal for day-to-day family life and casual entertaining. Two reception rooms plus a large utility give flexibility for work-from-home space, play areas or formal dining.
Outdoor living is a strong selling point: a large rear garden with patio, decked seating, summer house and an undercover bar create excellent entertaining options, while the wide driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles. The property benefits from a recently updated gas boiler and fast broadband availability, making it practical for modern family routines.
Upstairs, a principal bedroom with ensuite is joined by four further bedrooms; the house suits families who need bedrooms and adaptable space. There are only two bathrooms for five bedrooms, which may be a consideration for larger households. The home sits on a generous plot in a largely rural village setting with good local schools and reliable transport links to Colchester and nearby rail services.
Buyers should note the house dates from the 1930s–1940s and has cavity walls with no known added insulation — there may be scope and cost to improve thermal efficiency. The frontage is modest in depth; internal reconfiguration could unlock further layout improvements but would require investment. Overall this is a substantial extended family home that balances immediate liveability with potential to personalise and modernise.
