An immaculate 2 bedroom home situated within walking distance to Colchester's vibrant city centre, and historic park.

Description - Nestled within walking distance of Colchester town centre and set back on a sought-after, quiet, leafy avenue, this charming semi-detached property boasts a large attractive bay window and perfectly combines convenience with the tranquil feel of suburban living. Just a 7-minute walk to the heart of the town, mere steps from Colchester's historic Castle Park, and a 15-minute walk to the local train station, the location is ideal. Greeted by an open porch with a decorative brick arch, the entrance welcomes you into a space that is both cosy and inviting.
Upon entering, seamless oak effect flooring connects all areas throughout the ground floor, enhancing the sense of space with large windows that bathe the interior in natural light. The living room, ample in size, features a wood-burning stove, perfect for cosy nights during the winter months.
To the rear of the home, the generous, modern kitchen/diner emerges as the heart of the house and an ideal space for socialising. Equipped with a range-style gas/electric cooker, built-in appliances, and wide bi-fold door providing direct access to the patio and garden, this area is effortlessly suited to indoor/outdoor living on warmer and sunny days.
Space utilisation is meticulously planned, offering well-thought-out storage solutions that maintain the spaciousness of the living areas. The kitchen boasts innovative Vauth-Sagel 'magic corner' shelving units, while the entrance hall features cleverly concealed under-stairs storage for shoes. An adjacent outhouse functions as a practical utility area, for housing of a washing machine, tumble dryer, and fridge freezer.
On the first floor, the modern bathroom stands out with its sleek design, plentiful storage, towel airing shelves, underfloor heating, and instant hot water that is provided by a modern combination boiler discretely installed in the loft space. Moving on to the landing area, further purposefully designed and stylish cupboard space is provided for winter coats, and household appliances.
To the front of the house is a large principal bedroom, complete with a walk-in cupboard/wardrobe, and to the rear is a spacious second bedroom.
Stepping out of the kitchen/ diner you are immediately welcomed into a spacious and well-presented patio area. This area offers ample space for a dining table and chairs, garden sofa, chimenea, and barbecue, making it an ideal setting for entertaining guests or enjoying peaceful family meals in the open air.
The back garden, approximately 100 feet in length, is a testament to the available space and potential. Enclosed by a full-height fence and accessible via a side path with a secure gate, it offers a both privacy and accessibility. The main area, predominantly laid to lawn, provides a low-maintenance space for relaxation and play, or a blank canvas for those with a passion for gardening. Due to its size, on brighter days, a warm sunny spot can always be found throughout the whole day.
At the far end of the lawn, there is a second small patio and two solidly constructed sheds; one 6x4 for garden tools, and another, 8x6, that is insulated and serves as a workshop. In addition to this, all preparatory ground works have been completed in readiness for a potential garden office/summer house: these groundworks comprise a pre-laid 3.5m x 2.5m insulated base, foundation wall, and the delivery of all utilities to the area (power, water, and waste drainage). This careful planning makes the garden ready not just for now, but for future upgrades too.
