Tucked away in riverside Rowhedge, this compact two-bedroom terraced house offers efficient, modern open-plan living ideal for a first-time buyer. The ground floor feels bright and welcoming, centred on a living/dining space with a log-burning stove and an adjoining well-equipped kitchen. A contemporary shower room is also on the ground floor for convenience.
Upstairs are two generously proportioned bedrooms with built-in storage; the principal bedroom in particular provides good storage for a property of this size. The low-maintenance rear garden is shingled and includes a useful storage shed and gated side access. Practical features include double glazing (install date unknown) and freehold tenure.
Buyers should note the property’s compact footprint—approximately 456 sq ft—and very small plot, which limits outside space. Heating is by electric storage heaters, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes; prospective purchasers should review the EPC and consider potential heating upgrades. Overall, this well-presented home is suited to someone seeking a manageable starter home or a buy-to-let opportunity in a desirable riverside village with good transport links to Colchester and beyond.
