An exceptional five-bedroom family home set on a very large, landscaped plot in sought-after Lexden. Designed with period-influenced proportions and contemporary finishes, the house offers generous, well-planned living spaces across three floors and high ceilings throughout. The bespoke kitchen/breakfast room, walk-in pantry and utility provide practical family living, while two en-suite bedrooms and an impressive principal suite add comfort and privacy.
Outside, the property benefits from a large sun terrace, mature and well-stocked gardens, greenhouse and established planting — ideal for outdoor entertaining and family use. Parking is plentiful with an extensive block-paved driveway and a detached single garage. The home is chain-free, rated EPC B, and sits within easy reach of Colchester’s grammar and high-performing schools, town amenities and transport links to London.
Notable practical points: the house spans three storeys, which may be less suitable for limited mobility and could increase everyday household circulation. The extensive mature garden and multiple outdoor features will require ongoing maintenance. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall, this is a spacious, well-crafted family home offering immediate move-in standard with scope to personalise further.
