A no-onward-chain, three-bedroom semi in a gated pocket of Colchester, offered freehold and ready for immediate occupation. The property sits within easy walking distance of local shops and Hythe train station, making it a practical choice for commuters and first-time buyers wanting straightforward access to the town and A12 links. The layout is traditional and well-proportioned: ground-floor kitchen/diner and lounge with three bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs.
Practical features include allocated off-street parking, visitor spaces, double-glazed windows and a small enclosed courtyard garden. The building dates from the early 20th century and is solid brick as built; glazing install dates are unknown and insulation in the walls is assumed absent, so buyers should budget for possible energy-efficiency improvements and modernization to suit contemporary tastes.
Location strengths: gated development for added privacy, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, short walk to amenities and rail links. Notable local facts include an area classification indicating higher levels of private renting and recent arrivals, and mixed local school performance (some highly rated schools nearby but one listed primary requires improvement and a grammar school is rated inadequate). These factors may influence buyers seeking long-term family schooling stability.
Overall this property is best-suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking a commuter-friendly, chain-free purchase with renovation potential. It provides immediate functionality with clear scope to add value through energy upgrades, cosmetic updating and reconfiguration if desired.
