Summary - 7 BEVERLEY ROAD COLCHESTER CO3 3NG
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Character-filled four-bed Lexden home with 80ft garden and driveway, walkable to schools and town.
Rare circa-1870 Victorian semi with striking brick diapering
A rare Victorian semi on Beverley Road, recently renovated to combine original character with contemporary comfort. The house offers generous family accommodation across four floors — four double bedrooms, two bathrooms and almost 1,800 sq ft of flexible living including a lower-ground kitchen/breakfast room with French doors to the garden.
Stand-out features include decorative brick diapering and bargeboards, restored cast-iron fireplaces, high ceilings, bespoke replacement windows and updated electrics. Practical additions include a private driveway with space for several cars, a newly fitted Pod Point EV charger and gated side access to an 80ft west-facing walled garden with a sunny terrace.
The location suits families and professionals: it’s a short walk to Colchester city centre, highly ranked schools (including Colchester Royal Grammar and County High), parks and the mainline station with direct trains to London in under an hour. The property is move-in ready but retains scope for personalisation in parts.
A few practical points to note: the property’s solid brick construction likely has limited wall insulation (typical for homes of this age), which may affect running costs despite the upgraded heating system. Council tax is high. While extensively refurbished, ongoing maintenance of period features should be expected.
Overall this is a characterful, versatile family home in a highly sought-after Lexden location — immediate occupancy possible with the opportunity to further enhance energy performance and personalise finishes.
