Summary - FERN LODGE FRATING ROAD GREAT BROMLEY COLCHESTER CO7 7JW
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Five-bedroom detached home with annex, large garden and parking in peaceful Great Bromley village.
Five bedrooms including self-contained annex for guests or rental
Set on a large plot in the peaceful village of Great Bromley, this five-bedroom detached home combines generous family living with flexible accommodation. The house includes a self-contained annex, an impressive dining/games room and a separate living room, making it well suited to multi-generational households or home-working families.
Practical features include eight roof-mounted solar panels, ample off-street parking and fast broadband. The accommodation spans approximately 2,615 sq ft across multiple floors, with oversized windows that bring good natural light into principal rooms. The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite, and a second en-suite serves another bedroom.
Buyers should note some fabric and energy-related drawbacks: the property was constructed before 1900 with cavity walls that are assumed to have no added insulation, and the double glazing was installed before 2002. Heating is provided by an LPG boiler and radiators (LPG not on a community supply). Council tax is moderate and the area records low crime, though the wider area classifications indicate ageing rural neighbourhoods and pockets of local deprivation.
This home will appeal most to families seeking space and countryside living with good commuter links to Colchester and the A12/A120. There is clear potential to improve energy efficiency and modernise elements to reduce running costs and personalise the home further.
