About this home
GUIDE PRICE £230,000-£240,000. Set on the ever-popular New Town Road in Colchester, this well-presented three-bedroom terraced home offers a fantastic opportunity for families, first-time buyers, or investors alike. Blending modern upgrades with a convenient and well-connected location, the property is ready to move straight into and enjoy. Upon arrival, you are welcomed by an entrance porch, providing a practical space for coats and shoes before stepping into the spacious lounge/diner. This bright and versatile living area offers ample room for both relaxation and entertaining, making it the true heart of the home. To the rear, the modern fitted kitchen is well-appointed and includes a cooker, washing machine, and fridge, all of which are to remain. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both storage and functionality. Beyond this, a useful utility area provides additional space for laundry and storage, with direct access leading out to the enclosed rear garden. The ground floor also benefits from a brand new, stylishly fitted shower room, complete with a double-width shower, fully tiled surround, heated towel rail, obscure double glazing, wash hand basin, and low-level W.C., offering a sleek and contemporary finish. Upstairs, the property boasts three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a particularly comfortable double, while the remaining rooms are ideal for children, guests, or even a home office setup. Externally, the rear garden is a standout feature—generous in size, private, and fully enclosed, making it perfect for families or outdoor entertaining. A summerhouse sits at the rear, offering exciting potential; with some improvement, it could easily serve as a home office, gym, or “man cave.” To the front, there is on-street parking, which is readily available. Additional benefits include new carpets throughout, a brand new boiler, and a newly installed fuse board, ensuring peace of mind for the next owner. The location is another major highlight. New Town Road sits within easy reach of Colchester city centre, offering a wide range of shops, restaurants, cafés, and leisure facilities. Colchester Town and Colchester North stations are both accessible, providing direct rail links to London Liverpool Street—ideal for commuters. Families will appreciate the variety of well-regarded schooling options nearby, catering to all age groups, as well as local parks and green spaces within walking distance. Historically, the New Town area of Colchester developed during the Victorian expansion of the town, growing alongside the railway and forming a vibrant residential community. Today, it remains a sought-after location due to its character, convenience, and proximity to both historic landmarks and modern amenities.
