A spacious three-bedroom terraced home in Colchester’s Dutch Quarter, offered chain-free and with immediate possession potential. Large rooms and high ceilings give flexible living space over multiple storeys, while a private courtyard provides off-street parking in a city-centre setting close to the High Street, Castle Park and Colchester Town station.
The property retains barn-conversion character and a rustic kitchen with wooden features, but it needs modernization: dated kitchen surfaces, likely uninsulated solid brick walls and double glazing installed before 2002. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; prospective buyers should factor upgrade and insulation work into budgets.
This address sits in a busy, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with strong rental demand from students and city workers, making the house a candidate for buy-to-let or a renovation for owner-occupiers. Note there is an active public notice advising an offer has already been received, and the local area records very high crime levels and relative deprivation — both important for resale or tenancy considerations.
Overall this is a large, characterful urban property with clear potential for uplift after investment. Buyers seeking a turnkey home should expect refurbishment; those prepared to improve thermal performance and modernise fittings can create a comfortable, well-located residence or rental asset.
