About
The Property The sitting room is a great size, with plenty of space for a proper sofa setup and lots of natural light from the front. It feels bright, comfortable and, importantly, easy to furnish.
At the back, the kitchen/diner makes good use of the space, with plenty of storage and worktop space, room for a dining table and a door straight out to the garden.
Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom is particularly generous, while the second makes a good-sized single, guest room or additional home office if needed.
The bathroom is fresh and modern, with white metro tiling, a shower over the bath and a lovely pop of colour.
The Outside The rear garden is private and manageable, with lawn, established planting and a paved seating area at the far end – a nice spot for summer evenings.
A useful garden outbuilding adds extra storage, with scope to use the space for hobbies or a small workspace To the front, there’s the all-important driveway parking.
The Area Highwoods is popular for good reason.
You’ve got everyday shops and amenities close by, easy access into Colchester and Highwoods Country Park practically on the doorstep for walks, runs and plenty of green space.
