Description

This four-bedroom detached home is situated on a spacious corner plot in a desirable area to the west of Colchester, offering a unique opportunity for renovation and personalization. Built in the early 1950s, this property has been well cared for but is now primed for modernization throughout. With ample potential to extend and reconfigure the layout (subject to planning permissions), buyers can truly make this space their own.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway featuring built-in storage and stairs leading to the upper floor. The kitchen benefits from dual-aspect windows and generous dining space, connecting through to a covered lobby area that opens outside. The living room is generously sized and filled with natural light, while a versatile additional reception room could serve as a family room, home office, or dining area.

Upstairs, the split-level landing leads to four well-sized bedrooms characterized by plenty of daylight. A family shower room completes this level, allowing for excellent possibilities for reconfiguration that caters to modern living needs.

The exterior boasts mature gardens that ensure privacy and an expansive rear patio perfect for entertaining. A detached single garage along with a separate utility room and outdoor WC adds to the functionality of this home. The sizeable garden offers substantial opportunities for further extension or development, making this property an exciting prospect for investors or families looking to create their ideal long-term residence.
