Boydens are delighted to present this beautifully maintained family home, ideally situated in the highly sought-after St Mary’s area of Colchester. Perfectly positioned within easy reach of the city’s vibrant centre and the popular Crouch Street shopping parade, this property offers a wonderful balance of comfort, convenience, and contemporary living.

Upon entering through the double-glazed front door, you are welcomed into a spacious split-level hallway featuring a cloakroom, storage cupboards, and a turning stairwell leading to the first floor. The generous lounge, located at the front of the property, enjoys a charming bay window overlooking the quiet cul-de-sac and a stylish focal fireplace—ideal for relaxing evenings.

A substantial rear extension has transformed the home, creating a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/living space, designed for modern family life.

The bespoke fitted kitchen features marble work surfaces, ample storage, and a breakfast bar, while an air-conditioning unit ensures comfort during warmer months.

Upstairs, the first floor comprises two double bedrooms, two single bedrooms, and a modern, fully tiled family bathroom.

Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking, a single garage, and side access to the south-facing rear garden. The garden is attractively arranged over two levels, featuring a spacious patio area, lawn with flowerbed borders, and a wooden shed for additional storage.

Ideally located just outside Colchester’s bustling city centre, residents can enjoy an excellent selection of restaurants, bars, and shops, along with market days, when the streets come alive with local stalls. For leisure and entertainment, the area boasts the Odeon Cinema, Mercury Theatre, Arts Centre, and the historic Colchester Castle and parklands, which regularly host community events and concerts.

For commuters, Colchester North Station is less than a mile away, providing direct rail services to Ipswich, Norwich, and London Liverpool Street in under an hour.
