Situated on the highly sought-after Magazine Farm Way in the heart of Prettygate, Colchester, this impressive two/three-bedroom detached bungalow has been fully renovated throughout and offers spacious, well-appointed accommodation in a superb residential setting. With excellent access to high-performing local schools, a range of amenities, and convenient transport links, this home is ideally suited for families, downsizers, or those seeking high-quality single-storey living.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by a large entrance hall featuring multiple storage cupboards, providing a practical and organised introduction to the home. The generous lounge is bright and inviting, complete with an attractive electric fireplace and patio doors that open directly onto the rear garden, creating a relaxing and sociable space.
The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, having originally been two separate rooms and now offering an expansive layout with two large windows that fill the room with natural light. There is ample space for wardrobes, chests of drawers, dressing tables, and more. A second large double bedroom overlooks the garden, providing further comfortable and versatile accommodation. The family shower room is modern and well-appointed, featuring a large walk-in shower, WC, and wash basin.
To the rear of the home, an exceptional open-plan kitchen and dining area forms the heart of the property. This extended space benefits from high vaulted ceilings and Velux windows, which enhance the sense of space and light. The kitchen is fitted with an abundance of shaker-style units and ample worktop space, along with integrated appliances and a large central island that doubles as a breakfast bar. The dining area comfortably accommodates a large dining table, making it perfect for everyday family living or entertaining. From here, bi-fold doors lead directly out to the rear garden, providing a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Outside, the good-sized rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and features a paved patio area ideal for outdoor dining or relaxing. A standout feature of the garden is the large brick-built outbuilding, which benefits from full power and offers a variety of potential uses, such as a workshop, home office or studio. There is also a spacious garage accessible both from the garden and via the front of the property. The front driveway offers ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
Since being in the ownership of the current sellers, the property has undergone significant improvements including a brand new central heating system, complete rewiring and replumbing throughout, and the installation of a new boiler—ensuring peace of mind for the future owners.
