Summary - 16, TOWER ROAD, COLCHESTER, WIVENHOE CO7 9QE
5 bed 3 bath Chalet
Refurbished five-bedroom family home with garage, garden and excellent transport links.
28ft open-plan kitchen/dining/living with quartz worktops and Bosch appliances
Light-filled, recently remodelled and extended, this detached chalet on Tower Road offers flexible family living across two floors. The heart of the home is a 28ft open-plan kitchen/dining/living space finished to a high standard with quartz worktops, Bosch appliances and CAT 6 cabling — ideal for family life and home working. Three bedrooms and a generous bathroom sit on the ground floor, with two further bedrooms and a shower room upstairs for guests or teenagers.
Externally the property sits on a large plot with a wrap-around garden, double garage and ample driveway parking. The generous outdoor space suits family play, gardening or future landscaping, while the double garage adds secure storage or workshop potential. Practical details include mains gas heating with radiators, double glazing installed post-2002 and fast broadband and mobile signal.
Location is a genuine draw: close to the waterfront and quayside, within easy reach of Essex University and Wivenhoe station for direct trains to London. The home is offered freehold and chain free, making for a straightforward purchase. Constructed in the late 1960s–1970s and fully renovated, the property blends period bones with contemporary finishes.
Buyers should note the vendor’s description lists the overall size as average despite the 2,106 sq ft footprint; interested parties should verify room sizes and layout to match specific needs. While the refurbishment is comprehensive, the property's original construction era (circa 1967–75) may mean some unseen maintenance or updates could arise over time.
