Summary - 5 QUEENS ROAD WIVENHOE COLCHESTER CO7 9JH
3 bed 1 bath Town House
Chain-free three bedroom home close to shops, schools and transport.
Heart of Lower Wivenhoe, short walk to station and waterfront
This compact three-bedroom Victorian townhouse sits in the heart of Lower Wivenhoe, a short walk from the waterfront, local shops and the train station (approx. 75 minutes to London Liverpool Street). The living room retains period character with a cast-iron open fireplace; the layout spreads over three floors to make the most of the space.
Practical extras include a kitchen/breakfast room, a downstairs sitting room, a rear garden with patio and lawn, and a powered workshop. The property is chain-free and set in a quiet, affluent area with very low crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for commuting or working from home.
Buyers should note a few material points: the main gas boiler and central heating have not been tested, there is only one shower room, and the house is a modest overall size (approx. 777 sqft) with solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation. These are factors to consider for heating costs and potential improvement works.
Overall this is a well-presented period home that will suit first-time buyers or couples seeking a characterful, low-maintenance base close to amenities and transport. There is scope to improve energy efficiency and personalise interiors if desired.
