This bay-fronted three-bedroom detached house offers traditional character and practical family layout close to schools and the waterfront. Ground floor includes two reception rooms and a kitchen; three bedrooms and a family bathroom occupy the first floor. The property is offered chain-free, making it suitable for buyers wanting a quicker move.
The house requires modernisation throughout: heating relies on room heaters and smokeless fuel, walls are likely solid brick with no insulation, and some damp/uncared-for areas are noted. EPC rating C reflects middling efficiency — insulation, heating and kitchen/bathroom upgrades are realistic first projects to improve comfort and running costs.
Externally the rear garden approaches 80' and has a raised decking area, incorporated water ditch and off-street parking accessed from a side right-of-way. That access must be kept clear and is restricted during school drop-off and pick-up times on term days. Despite these limits, the garden depth and parking add real practical value for family life or for those wanting outside space to extend or landscape.
Location is a strength: good access to local primary and secondary schools (both rated Good), regular bus links to Colchester, and nearby waterfront amenities including a marina and beach. Freehold tenure, very low local crime and fast broadband make this an attractive proposition for buyers willing to invest in renovation to unlock long-term value.
