About
**** guide price: £375,000 - £400,000 **** Beautifully presented throughout, this stylish three-bedroom 1930s-style semi-detached house offers characterful and practical accommodation ideally suited to modern family life.
Situated on the highly sought-after Ipswich Road to the north of Colchester, the property provides easy access to the A12, A120, Colchester General Hospital and North railway station, all of which are a short drive away.
Colchester’s historic city centre is also easily accessible, while local shops, schools and everyday amenities are close by, including The Gilberd School.
The accommodation begins with an entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway with useful under-stairs storage.
The thoughtfully decorated lounge features a characterful bay window with fitted shutters, together with a log burner creating a warm and inviting focal point.
To the rear, the spacious dining area features French doors opening onto the garden and flows seamlessly into a modern fitted kitchen with a breakfast bar, Rangemaster cooker, wine chiller and integrated dishwasher.
A separate utility room and ground-floor cloakroom complete this well-planned level.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous bay-fronted principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and window shutters.
The remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom.
Outside, the generous rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and features a paved patio ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, together with gated side access.
The enclosed front garden is predominantly paved and bordered by an attractive brick wall.
Combining period character with modern convenience, this impressive family home must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
Palmer & Partners would encourage an early internal viewing to avoid disappointment.
