Summary - 53 CASTLE ROAD COLCHESTER CO1 1UN
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Moments from Colchester town centre and station, with garden and flexible living space.
Backs onto Castle Park with direct park access nearby
This Victorian terraced home on Castle Road backs onto Castle Park and offers a compact but versatile layout across two floors. Period features such as arched windows and a decorative fireplace sit alongside a modern fitted kitchen and contemporary first-floor shower room. The house includes two reception rooms plus a home office/snug, making it flexible for family life, remote working or rental use.
Its location is a major strength: a short walk to Colchester town centre, Colchester Town railway station and numerous amenities, with good road links to the A12 and A120. Local schools rated Outstanding and Good are nearby, and the rear garden provides a private patio and raised lawn for outdoor relaxing.
Buyers should note this is a modestly sized property on a small plot. There is potential for damp indicated in parts of the building fabric, and the wider area records very high crime levels — both important considerations for families and investors. The house is freehold and presented in neutral decor, allowing straightforward updating or refurbishment to add value.
Overall, the property suits buyers wanting convenient town-centre living with period character and practical modern elements. It offers immediate move-in potential but also scope for improvement for those seeking long-term uplift or a well-located rental asset.
