Richardson Walk – Lexden, West Colchester, CO3

A rarely available and exceptionally well-presented three/four-bedroom detached chalet, located on a desirable and highly regarded private road in Lexden, West Colchester. Set on an impressive 0.52-acre mature plot, the property enjoys a private, tranquil setting with an abundance of outdoor space — perfect for entertaining, family life, or those seeking versatile living.

The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance hall, a spacious reception room with a feature bay window, cast iron log burner with oak mantle, and patio doors opening to the rear garden. The heart of the home is a stunning kitchen/diner with shaker-style units, Rangemaster oven, granite worktops, and integrated appliances. Additional ground floor spaces include a versatile playroom/bedroom, a study/bedroom, a formal dining room with feature oak mantle and beam, a utility room with plumbing for appliances, and a ground floor W.C.

Upstairs, the large landing doubles as a useful study area, leading to two generous double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and a beautifully finished four-piece family bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and freestanding claw-foot bath.

Externally, the property sits on a beautifully maintained, south-facing mature plot, predominantly laid to lawn and features a variety of established hedges, shrubs, fruit trees and planting throughout. Two generous patio areas provides the perfect spot for outdoor seating and alfresco dining. In addition there is also the added benefit of a greenhouse, two sheds and two log stores. The home also benefits from a secure frontage with a double garage and a wealth of off-road parking.

You will note there is a concrete foundation in place within the grounds, plus utility services already laid on, which offers potential to be developed (subject to planning permission) into an annexe, outbuilding, home office, or similar structure — offering further scope to enhance this already impressive home.

A truly special property in a sought-after location.
