About
Boydens are delighted to bring to the market this spacious four-bedroom detached family home, ideally situated to the west of Colchester, within easy reach of the A12, Tollgate and Stane Park Retail Parks.
Offering generous and well-proportioned accommodation throughout, this well-laid-out property presents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to modernise and create a home tailored to their own tastes.
The property benefits from gas-fired radiator heating and double glazing.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hallway, accessed via a wooden front door, which provides ample space for coats and shoes, along with a useful understairs storage cupboard.
The spacious lounge enjoys a front aspect and features an attractive archway opening into the adjoining dining area, creating a natural flow between the two reception spaces.
The dining area leads through to a fitted kitchen overlooking the rear garden.
Further ground-floor accommodation includes a separate utility room, a convenient cloakroom/WC and a garden room, which provides access to the tandem-length garage.
To the first floor, a generous landing provides access to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom. Three of the bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, offering useful built-in storage.
While the property would benefit from a programme of updating and modernisation, its spacious layout, versatile accommodation and excellent potential make it an exciting opportunity to create a desirable modern family home.
Externally, the property offers off-road parking to the front, leading to a tandem-style garage.
A side gate provides access to the rear garden, which is predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by a patio area, established shrubs and mature trees.
With its generous accommodation, practical layout and scope for improvement, this detached home offers considerable potential for families and buyers seeking a property they can make their own.
The property can be found on the Halstead Road, which is a direct link between Colchester and Halstead.
The A12, Tollgate & Stanes Retail Parks, and Colchester's North Station with its direct link to London Liverpool Street in under an hour can easily be reached from this location.
There is easy access to many good primary and secondary schools, including Holmwood House, The Girls High, Colchester Grammar, and Stanway. The Sainsbury's superstore is also less than a mile away.
