Set in sought-after Lexden, this Victorian three-bedroom semi offers generous living space and high ceilings across c.1,021 sq ft. The house is freehold and offered with no onward chain, making it a straightforward purchase for families seeking proximity to excellent schools and Colchester city-centre amenities.
Ground floor layout includes a bright lounge, separate dining room and fitted kitchen opening to a large rear garden — a strong draw for outdoor entertaining and children's play. On-street parking serves the property; the plot also features a lawned front garden and mature boundary planting.
Upstairs there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Practical strengths include gas central heating, double glazing installed after 2002, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. There is no flood risk and council tax is described as affordable.
Notable considerations: the house was built 1900–1929 with solid brick walls assumed uninsulated, and it currently has an EPC rating of D. Buyers should anticipate potential improvement costs for wall insulation and general modernisation to raise energy efficiency and long-term running costs. On-street parking and a single bathroom may be limiting for some households.
