Shared ownership leasehold - check eligibility and staircasing terms
This three-bedroom detached house in Stanway is offered as shared ownership, making home ownership more accessible for first-time buyers. The property sits on a modern development near Tollgate Retail Park, with strong transport links (A12/A120) and bus routes to Colchester town centre. Lakelands Primary and several well-rated schools are close by, and local amenities include a large supermarket, doctors and dentist.
Inside, the layout is practical for a young family: a generous lounge that flows to a contemporary kitchen/diner with integrated appliances, useful utility cupboard and ground-floor WC. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The enclosed rear garden is well landscaped with lawn and patio, and a side gate leads to a driveway with off-street parking for up to three vehicles.
Practical strengths include fast broadband, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and average thermal performance from the walls. The area is described as very affluent and predominantly white-collar, which supports long-term demand in the locality.
Material considerations: this is a leasehold property sold via shared ownership. Buyers should check eligibility, lease length, any monthly service or management charges, and staircasing terms before committing. Crime is average for the area. The property is presented in modern, neutral condition but buyers wanting full ownership or no tenure restrictions should confirm purchase options and costs.
