Description

This Victorian residence boasts classic architectural features such as high ceilings and spacious rooms, making it a prime candidate for a transformative renovation. With generous accommodation spread across two levels, the property is ready to undergo modernization, allowing for customization that aligns with contemporary living. The ground floor hosts multiple reception areas, including a substantial living room and a separate dining space, along with a conservatory that enhances natural light while offering views of the expansive garden. An adequately sized kitchen/breakfast room presents opportunities for reconfiguration to meet modern standards, supported by useful ancillary spaces like a boot room and shower facilities. The upper level accommodates five well-proportioned bedrooms alongside a family bathroom, providing flexibility in layout design; potential exists to create an impressive principal suite with additional bathrooms if desired. Outside, the property features an in-and-out driveway that could easily be expanded for more parking. The surrounding garden is generously laid out, featuring lawns and mature vegetation, perfect for outdoor enhancements. A detached garage adds storage versatility while an unused outbuilding offers further potential but may require upkeep. Situated in the quaint village of Aingers Green, this home benefits from rural tranquility combined with accessibility to local amenities and transport links to Colchester and London. This property represents an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to create a unique family home in a sought-after location.
