About
Situated in a sought-after area of South Colchester, this attractive four bedroom link-detached family home offers easy access to Abbey Fields and Friday Woods, ideal for walking, outdoor activities, and family days out.
The property is also close to highly regarded schools and well connected, with regular bus routes into Colchester city centre, while the coastline at Mersea Island can be reached within a short drive.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by a spacious entrance hall with stairs leading to the first floor and a ground floor cloakroom.
The open-plan kitchen/dining/family room features a well-equipped kitchen with integrated appliances and tiled flooring.
The adjoining family area offers a flexible space that could be used as a playroom, study, or informal sitting room.
Additional ground floor accommodation includes a separate dining room featuring a bay window, along with a bright dual-aspect living room centred around an attractive fireplace, providing a comfortable setting for relaxing or entertaining.
Upstairs, the first floor hosts four generously sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and its own en-suite bathroom.
The remaining bedrooms are well proportioned and suitable for family living, all served by the family bathroom.
Outside, the property benefits from a private and enclosed rear garden with a patio seating area and lawn, ideal for outdoor enjoyment. The garden can also be accessed directly from the garage.
A double garage provides secure parking and additional storage space. Palmer & Partners would recommend an early internal viewing to avoid disappointment.
