Summary - 3 Bayard Avenue, Brightlingsea, Colchester, CO7 CO7 0NH
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Detached period home near beach and park, ready for modernisation and extension potential.
Detached three/four-bedroom interwar house with period features
Set in a sought-after Brightlingsea pocket, this interwar three/four-bedroom detached house is offered with no onward chain — ideal for families wanting space close to amenities. The home retains period character: a bay-fronted lounge with decorative cornicing and a feature fireplace gives immediate charm, while a separate dining room and study area provide flexible living. The private rear garden backs onto allotments and the property is adjacent to the large recreation ground, with the town centre, beach and marina all within easy walking distance.
Practical benefits include off-street parking and a generous overall layout across two storeys, but the house requires updating throughout. The interior shows dated finishes and will suit buyers prepared to modernise kitchens, bathroom and general decoration to unlock the property’s full potential. There is a single family bathroom only and typical room sizes are modest; refurbishment could create an open-plan kitchen/diner or add an en-suite if required.
This freehold offers a straightforward purchase route for buyers who value location and scope to improve. Fast mobile signal and low local crime add comfort, though broadband speeds are slow. For families, the property is within walking distance of Good-rated primary and secondary schools, play facilities and local sports amenities. Viewing is recommended for those seeking a character home with clear renovation potential in a convenient coastal town location.
