Set on a large plot in the sought-after Lexden/Prettygate area, this three-bedroom detached house offers spacious family living with no onward chain. The ground floor provides a welcoming living room, a modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room and a dining area with direct access to an integral garage and utility space — convenient for busy family life.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite, plus a contemporary family bathroom. The house measures approximately 1,776 sq ft, giving generous room proportions and good flow between living spaces. Large front and rear gardens and off-street parking for multiple vehicles add practical outdoor space for family use and visitors.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, cavity-filled walls, solar panels and double glazing. The property sits close to highly regarded schools (including several Outstanding-rated options), local amenities and is about 1.6 miles from Colchester mainline station with easy A12 access — strong for commuters and families alike.
Notable points to consider: the property dates from the late 1960s/1970s and the double glazing appears to be pre-2002, so some buyers may choose to update windows or other finishes over time. Council tax is in a higher band (F), and while the home shows contemporary fittings and an EPC C rating, further improvements could raise efficiency and value. Crime levels are average for the area.
