This recently renovated two-bedroom Victorian semi offers comfortable modern living in a small-town Wivenhoe location. The rear extension creates an open-plan kitchen/breakfast room flowing into a lounge/diner with a newly fitted log burner, while UPVC double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday convenience. Off-road parking and a generous, low-maintenance garden with a powered summer house extend usable space outdoors.
The house suits first-time buyers or small families looking for a move-in-ready period home close to good local schools, shops and regular bus links. Interiors are bright and practical, with two reception rooms giving flexible living and dining options.
Notable practical points: rooms are average to modest in size, and there is a single family bathroom. The property’s solid brick construction (pre-1900) typically lacks built-in wall insulation, which may affect energy performance compared with modern insulated builds. The home is freehold, in a low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Overall this is a tidy, modernised period cottage that balances character features with contemporary finishes. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout, garden and off-street parking in this desirable CO7 neighbourhood.
