About
This charming two‐bedroom terraced cottage on London Road in Stanway offers a wonderful blend of character, comfort, and practicality.
Dating back to the 1800s, it carries the warmth and appeal of a period home while remaining perfectly suited to modern living.
Its location is a major highlight, set within one of Stanway’s most popular areas, you’ll find supermarkets, Tollgate and Stane Retail Parks, excellent transport links into Colchester City Centre, and quick access to the A12 all close by.
Marks Tey Station is also just a short drive away, making this an exceptionally well‐connected place to call home. You are welcomed into an entrance hall that leads directly into the living room.
This inviting space features a character fireplace that adds warmth and charm, creating a cosy atmosphere with plenty of room to style to your taste.
From here, you step into the kitchen, a practical and sociable area offering generous worktop and cupboard space.
With room for a dining table, it’s an ideal setting for cooking, hosting, and everyday family meals.
The ground‐floor bathroom includes a three‐piece suite, and at the rear of the home sits a bright conservatory that welcomes natural light and provides a peaceful spot to relax while enjoying views of the garden.
Upstairs, the cottage offers two generous bedrooms.
The main bedroom provides comfortable space and benefits from built‐in wardrobes, while the second bedroom is also well‐proportioned and can easily accommodate a double bed.
Both rooms feel calm and inviting, making the upper floor a restful retreat. Externally, the rear garden is a good size and stretches far back.
With both patio and lawned areas, it’s the perfect setting for enjoying warm weather, outdoor dining, or simply relaxing in a peaceful environment.
To the front, the property enjoys an attractive cottage‐style frontage with a small garden area, and parking spaces to the side add everyday convenience.
