Summary - 137 BARRACK STREET COLCHESTER CO1 2LZ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Two-bedroom freehold near stations and shops, ideal for first-time buyers.
Two double bedrooms and one family bathroom
This two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a compact, well-presented layout close to Colchester city centre and transport links. The bright lounge leads through to a dining room and modern kitchen, with a ground-floor bathroom and a small enclosed rear garden with patio for outdoor dining.
Practical features include double glazing (install date unknown), mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, freehold tenure and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for commuting or working from home. On-street parking is available and the property sits within walking distance of Hythe and Colchester stations, shops and local amenities.
Buyers should note the property is a Victorian mid-terrace built circa 1900–1929 with solid brick walls that likely lack cavity insulation. The plot is small and rooms are traditionally modest in scale. The wider area is classified as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and a private-renting new arrivals area, which may affect long-term owner-occupier quietness and rental demand dynamics.
Overall this home suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a central, well-connected property with character and clear scope for energy-efficiency upgrades or interior modernisation to add value.
