Spacious four-bed detached in Poets Corner — large garden, excellent schools, no chain..
No onward chain — quick, straightforward sale
Set on a mature, tree-lined plot in Colchester’s desirable Poets Corner, this four-bedroom detached house offers generous family accommodation across two floors. The layout centres on an impressive open-plan kitchen/family room with three sets of French doors that spill onto a private patio and mature rear garden — ideal for everyday family life and entertaining. The master bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite, and there is useful additional space provided by a separate utility and garage.
Built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, the property benefits from double glazing (installed post-2002), solar panels and an A energy rating, helping running costs. It sits within excellent school catchments and offers easy access to local amenities, Hilly Fields, the A12 and Colchester mainline station, making it suitable for commuters and families alike.
No onward chain speeds a straightforward move, but buyers should note the house reflects its era: some cosmetic updating or modernising may be wanted to match contemporary finishes. Council tax is band E (above average) and the area records average crime and mobile signal — sensible matters to factor into budgeting and daily life. Viewing is recommended for those seeking a spacious, well-positioned family home with good future potential.
