Details

Boydens are pleased to bring to market this well-proportioned three-bedroom detached property, nestled in the highly sought-after western area of Colchester city centre. Within walking distance of esteemed educational institutions such as the Girls' High School and the Colchester Royal Grammar School, along with a host of other schools, this home is ideal for families seeking convenience and quality education.

Upon arrival, you're greeted by a welcoming porch area leading into a generously proportioned hallway, complete with an under-stairs cupboard and access to the downstairs WC. To the left, the inviting lounge boasts a large double-glazed window to the front aspect and a central fireplace, creating a cosy atmosphere. Flowing seamlessly from the lounge is the dining area, offering serene views of the rear garden through sliding double doors. The kitchen, also positioned at the rear of the property, features a range of base and eye-level units with an integrated oven, hob, extractor hood, and inset sink. A side utility room, accessible from the kitchen, provides plumbing for a washing machine and grants access to an undercover walkway leading to the front of the property and a door into the single garage. This flexible ground floor layout presents ample potential for reconfiguration or extension to create a spacious open-plan living area, following the trend of neighbouring properties.

Upstairs, three bedrooms await, with two generously sized doubles offering built-in wardrobes and storage spaces (requiring repairing). The third bedroom, though smaller, remains functional and enjoys a window to the front aspect. These bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, complete with a panelled bath, WC, and sink. Further extension possibilities exist for this floor, with the potential to create a large principal bedroom with a dressing room and ensuite, as seen in neighbouring properties (over the garage). Additionally, the boarded loft space, accessible via a drop-down ladder and featuring a window, has been utilized as a hobby train space, adding to the property's versatility.

Externally, the property boasts ample off-road parking via a block-paved driveway leading to the single garage with an up-and-over door. The generous rear garden, adorned with mature trees and shrubs, features a patio area at the rear of the property leading to a predominantly laid lawn area. A wooden storage shed and utility area, complemented by fruit trees, complete this idyllic outdoor space.

In summary, this delightful property offers not only comfortable living spaces but also exciting potential for expansion and customisation, all within a coveted location close to schools and amenities.
