Chain-free period semi with garden, close to town and schools — scope to improve energy efficiency.
Chain free and ready to occupy
This early 20th-century semi sits within easy walking distance of Brightlingsea town centre and the waterfront, offering a straightforward, chain-free purchase for a first-time buyer or small family. The house provides two principal bedrooms plus a smaller third/dressing room, two reception rooms and a modern ground-floor bathroom — all ready for immediate occupation with scope to personalise.
Strengths include a large plot with an easterly rear garden, side access and greenhouse potential, gas central heating with boiler and double glazing, and a quiet town-fringe location close to good primary and secondary schools and local amenities. Regular bus links to Colchester and nearby train stations add commuting convenience.
Practical considerations: the property has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation and an EPC rating of D, so energy efficiency improvements would be beneficial. Broadband speeds are slow locally, and crime levels are above average — factors to weigh if working from home or prioritising security. Overall, this is an affordable, characterful home with scope to improve value through sensible upgrades.
