* GUIDE PRICE £475,000 - £500,000 * A rare opportunity to acquire a charming period cottage dating back to 1830, set within a generous and attractive plot and offering spacious, versatile accommodation throughout. Of particular note is the impressive detached triple garage to the rear, presenting an exciting opportunity to create a self contained annexe, home office or studio, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

The main house is both welcoming and well proportioned, comprising an entrance hallway, ground floor bathroom, and a stylish kitchen diner ideal for modern family living. The extended lounge is a superb space, enhanced by an additional dining area or study which is open plan to the rear, creating a bright and flexible living environment. To the first floor are three well sized bedrooms, including a main bedroom with en suite.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A large driveway provides ample off road parking and leads to a detached garage, with gated access through to the rear gardens. Here you will find a substantial triple garage building which offers huge potential for conversion, subject to planning, or could serve as an exceptional workshop or home office. The rear gardens are mainly laid to lawn with patio seating areas, perfect for entertaining and family enjoyment. Solar panels are fitted to the property and will remain.

The property is ideally positioned in a non estate location to the north of Colchester, offering excellent access to the A12 and A120, Colchester Park and Ride station, and the Northern Gateway Leisure Complex. The Gilberd School is nearby, and Colchester city centre is approximately three miles away.
