Bright, commuter-friendly home near Colchester with driveway parking.
Three bedrooms with a newly fitted modern bathroom
A well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home sitting in the picturesque village of Great Horkesley. The house blends mid-20th century character with recent updates — double glazing installed after 2002 and a newly fitted modern bathroom — across an average-sized footprint of about 945 sq ft. The entrance hall leads to a cloakroom, lounge with a feature fireplace, and a practical kitchen with a larder cupboard.
Outside, there is a decent rear garden with a powered shed, side access and a front driveway providing ample off-street parking. The location is rural yet well connected: local nursery and primary schools are nearby, and Colchester North Station is a ten-minute drive offering direct services to London. The A12 and local leisure facilities, including David Lloyd and Northern Gateway, are within easy reach.
Practical considerations are clear: the property runs on oil-fired boiler heating and carries an EPC rating of D, which may mean higher running costs than gas alternatives. There is a single bathroom to serve three bedrooms, and while the house is well maintained it dates from the 1950s–60s so buyers should allow for typical mid-century maintenance or modernization where required.
This freehold home suits families or those wanting a village lifestyle with commuter links. It offers immediate move-in potential with opportunity to personalise and improve energy performance over time.
