Chain-free detached house with garden and driveway in well-connected suburb.
Three double bedrooms; converted garage adds flexible reception space
A spacious three-double-bedroom detached house in a popular Colchester suburb, offered chain free and ready for updating. The property includes a sitting room, a converted garage providing flexible reception space with French doors to the garden, and a kitchen with fitted units and integrated fridge/freezer. The low-maintenance paved rear garden, off-street driveway parking and decent plot size add practical family appeal.
The layout suits families seeking flexible living: entrance hall with cloakroom, ground-floor reception rooms plus a useful home office/playroom, and three double bedrooms upstairs served by a single shower room. At around 995 sq ft the home is an average-sized family property that will suit everyday needs while offering scope to reconfigure or modernise for extra value.
The house requires modernisation throughout — cosmetic updating and likely kitchen and bathroom replacements are needed to bring it up to contemporary standards. Buyers should note there is only one shower room and that the property has been extended/garage-converted, which may limit scope for certain alterations. No major structural issues are apparent from the description, but a survey is recommended to confirm services and finishes.
Location is a strong practical advantage: Longridge is a comfortable suburban area with good access to schools, local shops, Colchester North station and the A12 commuter routes. Broadband and mobile coverage are good, council tax is affordable (Band C) and the property is freehold, making this a straightforward purchase for families or buyers seeking a renovation project with sensible commuter links.
