Chain-free Victorian semi in New Town with garden, two receptions and walking distance to station.
Chain-free two-bedroom Victorian semi-detached house
This chain-free Victorian semi offers straightforward living in Colchester’s New Town, arranged over two floors with two bedrooms and two reception rooms. The layout and room sizes are typical for the period and suit a small family, couple or first-time buyer looking to move quickly.
Practical features include gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, UPVC double glazing, an enclosed rear garden and on-street parking. The property is freehold, around 646 sq ft, and sits within walking distance of the town centre and local train station, making everyday journeys convenient.
Buyers should note material considerations: the plot is small, parking is on-street only, and the original cavity walls are recorded as having no insulation (likely requiring upgrade for improved efficiency). The area records higher-than-average crime levels, which may affect some buyers’ priorities.
With neutral, well-presented living spaces and period character to the exterior, the house offers immediate occupation for those wanting a low-complexity purchase, and modest potential for energy-efficiency improvements or cosmetic updating to add value. Local schools and amenities are close by, supporting family use or rental appeal.
