Compact, commuter-friendly home close to station and city amenities.
Two double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes
This well-presented Victorian terrace offers a compact, practical home in the centre of Colchester. At about 595 sqft, the layout is efficient: a bright lounge and dining area flows into a modern kitchen with Velux windows and patio doors to a private rear garden. Two double bedrooms both have built-in wardrobes and the bathroom is contemporary with a bath and overhead shower.
Commuters will value the short walk to Colchester North Station and direct trains to London Liverpool Street. The property is freehold, benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and comes with permit on-street parking directly outside. The rear garden includes a patio, lawn, stoned area and shed, plus useful side access to the front.
Practical considerations: the house is small in overall size and sits on a modest plot, so space is limited compared with larger family homes. The building was constructed before 1900 and walls are likely solid brick with no internal insulation assumed, which can mean higher heating costs unless improved. The surrounding area records higher crime levels, which prospective buyers should factor into their decision.
Offered with a guide price of £260,000–£270,000, this compact two-bedroom terrace will suit first-time buyers or commuters seeking a well-maintained, central base with period character and contemporary updates. It presents immediate move-in comfort with scope to improve thermal efficiency and personalise internal finishes.
