  • POTENTIAL TO EXTEND AND ADD VALUE
Located to the North East of Colchester city centre in the prestigious, quiet and friendly community of Welshwood Park. This is a three bedroom detached bungalow, two bathrooms, two reception rooms, kitchen, conservatory and garage set in mature grounds of approximately third of an acre. The garden is south facing.

We believe that the original property was built in the 1950s. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a single storey home in the respectable and quiet community of Welshwood Park. The property is perfectly suited for for anyone who may be downsizing or in need of downstairs accommodation and the convenience of local amenities, easy access and a short journey to the city centre. Alternatively, there is plenty of scope to reconfigure and/or extend to increase the size and add value, as have the majority of neighbouring properties.

INSIDE
Walk through the entrance hall and to the right is a good size dining room, which feels light and airy with doors onto the rear patio and garden. The other door on this side leads to the third bedroom with wet room.

The current vendors extended at the front of the dining room, to create this third bedroom. You could reconfigure this space to create a large kitchen/diner or large diner/living room and move the third bedroom to where the current sitting room is. It would add value and be cost effective to build a garden room off the back of the dining room opening out onto the garden.

To the left of the main entrance is the kitchen, with utility cupboard, bathroom with separate WC, a small conservatory (that is filled with light and perfect as a study area), second double bedroom and the main double bedroom. Finally at this side of the home is the sitting room with windows out onto the garden and door onto the side patio.

OUTSIDE
To the front of the property is a paved drive, edged with mature shrubs, providing off street parking for three vehicles and access to single garage. To the rear is a private non-overlooked mature south facing garden, with an abundance of shrubs, flower beds, trees and lawn area, which is perfect match for any keen gardeners or for a safe area for children to play. The total plot size is approximately 1/3 acre.

LOCATION
Welshwood Park is situated to the north eastern outskirts of the city centre with good access to the A12 and A120. There are primary and secondary schooling nearby, including Gilberd Secondary School. Colchester General hospital and Colchester North Station are 15 minute drive. Journey time is less than an hour journey direct to London Liverpool Street.

Locally you are walking distance to the shopping facilities for day to day needs at nearby St. Johns shopping parade. Waitrose and Highwoods Tesco superstore are only a short drive.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on December 21, 2021

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
