About
Within the heart of the highly sought-after village of Colne Engaine, this wonderful three-bedroom semi-detached family home offers well-proportioned living space combined with exceptional private grounds and versatile outbuildings.
Welcoming you through the entrance hallway, the ground floor accommodation features a light and spacious main lounge, complete with a working log-burning stove that creates a warm, cozy centerpiece for family relaxation.
Direct access leads into a dedicated dining room, which enjoys delightful views across the rear garden.
Adjacent to the dining space sits a practical kitchen, offering a cohesive layout for daily living and entertaining. Upstairs, the central landing gives access to three well-appointed bedrooms.
The generous master bedroom is situated to the front, while a comfortable second double bedroom overlooks the rear aspect. A versatile third bedroom makes a perfect nursery or home office.
A family bathroom and useful airing cupboard complete the first-floor layout. A standout feature of this residence is the impressive rear garden.
Exceptionally private and predominantly laid to lawn, it leads down to a secluded seating area at the very end-creating a wonderfully peaceful retreat for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing in total privacy.
Additionally, the property benefits from a single garage and an adjoining brick-built outbuilding, offering excellent scope for workshop space, extra storage, or potential conversion, as well as a driveway offering parking for at least one vehicle.
Situated in the picturesque village of Colne Engaine, local residents enjoy a vibrant village atmosphere complete with a popular local pub, village primary school, shop, and beautiful countryside walks right on the doorstep, with convenient transport links and broader amenities close by in nearby Halstead and Earls Colne.
