Description

This semi-detached three-bedroom home, complemented by a one-bedroom self-contained annexe, presents an excellent opportunity for those seeking space and versatility in a tranquil semi-rural environment. The generous plot of approximately one-third of an acre allows for potential expansion or landscaping enhancements, making it ideal for both families and investors alike. Upon entry, a welcoming hallway introduces the well-configured ground floor, which includes a spacious living room perfect for casual gatherings and a separate dining room designed for entertaining. The kitchen features modern units that balance practicality and style, accompanied by a utility room and boot room to enhance functionality. A convenient downstairs WC adds to the practicality of the layout. Upstairs, you will find three adequately sized bedrooms accompanied by a contemporary family bathroom that is finished with current fittings. The highlight of this property is undoubtedly the detached annexe that offers additional flexibility; whether as an office space, gym, or guest accommodation with its own access. This could serve as valuable rental income (subject to permissions). Outside, the recently reseeded garden offers privacy through mature plantings and new fencing, creating an inviting outdoor area. There’s ample space for children to play or for hosting gatherings with friends and family; further development opportunities are also possible pending planning approval. A spacious driveway ensures plenty of off-road parking. Benefitting from a shared biomass heating system means reduced energy costs averaging around £75 per month covering all utilities—an appealing feature in today's market where efficiency is valued. Located close to picturesque walking routes towards the Colne Estuary while remaining easily accessible to Colchester and Wivenhoe makes this property not only desirable but strategically placed for commuting convenience.
