Summary - 51 BARRACK STREET COLCHESTER CO1 2LL
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free and walking distance to Colchester city centre
A compact two-bedroom mid-terraced house offered chain-free and located within walking distance of Colchester city centre. The 21ft sitting room provides a roomy principal living space with a feature fireplace and natural light front and rear, while the small rear courtyard offers low-maintenance outdoor space.
Presented as an ideal purchase for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor, the home has gas central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with space for appliances. The boiler and heating have not been tested; the energy rating is D. Accommodation includes a ground-floor bathroom and two modest first-floor bedrooms, one with an airing cupboard housing the combi boiler (not tested).
The house is compact (approximately 549 sq ft) and will suit buyers seeking a city-centre location over generous internal space. The area is a mix of private renters and student populations and is described as very deprived overall; nearby amenities, shops and public transport are within easy walking distance.
Practical buyers should note some likely improvement and maintenance needs: wall insulation is assumed absent (cavity walls as built), double glazing install date is unknown, and the heating system requires testing. Council tax band A and small plot size keep ongoing costs low, but buyers seeking large gardens or long-term family space may find the footprint limiting.
