Summary - 78 WICKHAM ROAD COLCHESTER CO3 3EE
2 bed 2 bath Terraced
Sunny southwest garden and handy open-plan living for first-time buyers.
Chain free two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace
A compact Victorian mid-terrace offering a rare, chain-free entry into central Colchester. The ground floor combines a cosy reception with an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, plus a convenient downstairs cloakroom — a practical layout for modern first-time buyers.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom accessed via the principal bedroom, effectively creating an en-suite arrangement while still retaining family convenience. The property is freehold and benefits from a south-west facing, low-maintenance rear garden ideal for afternoon sun.
Period features include red-brick facades and sash-style windows, while secondary glazing and gas central heating provide basic comfort. The house was built before 1900 with original solid brick walls and currently lacks cavity insulation, so retrofit insulation and other modernisation could improve comfort and running costs.
Practical considerations: parking is on-street with resident permits available, broadband and mobile signal are strong, and council tax is low. The property sits in a busy city centre location with high local crime levels reported — buyers should factor security and location trade-offs into their decision.
