A three-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace on a corner plot in St Mary’s, offered chain free and within easy walking distance of Colchester city centre and Crouch Street. The property retains period character including a cast-iron fireplace and benefits from good natural light thanks to its dual-aspect living room.
The ground floor offers an open-plan lounge/diner, galley kitchen and a bathroom; upstairs are two doubles and a single bedroom. A walled rear garden with a patio and mature planting provides outdoor space in a compact plot. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong, and North Station is under a mile away for rail links to London.
Practical points to note: the house is modest in size (c.795 sq ft) and has an EPC rating of D. The solid cavity walls are recorded with no added insulation (assumed), and the property will benefit from updating and potential energy-efficiency improvements. Crime levels in the area are reported as high, which may concern some buyers.
This home suits a family or buyer seeking an affordable period property close to city amenities, with scope to modernise and add value. Chain-free status supports a quicker purchase, but prospective buyers should factor refurbishment and insulation works into their plans and budgets.
