The property
Positioned in an elevated setting on Bergholt Road, this handsome detached Victorian home combines period charm with a stylish, modern interior, offering generous accommodation for family living and entertaining.
The house was sympathetically extended in the 20th century and later renovated in the early 2000s, including the creation of an open-plan dining area by removing an internal wall.
Original character features such as stripped wooden floors, oak doors, ornate fireplaces, and recessed cupboards are complemented by modern enhancements including Victorian-style radiators, feature lighting, two log burners, and bespoke fitted storage throughout.
The ground floor provides a well-balanced layout of open-plan and separate living spaces. At its heart, the kitchen/breakfast room accommodates a four-person dining table and features a gas range cooker, creating a welcoming hub for the home.
On the first floor, four double bedrooms are accessed via two separate staircases.
The master suite benefits from recessed wardrobes and a fully tiled en-suite shower room. A rear bedroom is ideally suited as a guest room or home office, with convenient access to a ground floor shower room.
Grounds and outbuildings
The south-west facing courtyard garden (23ft x 17ft) offers a private and inviting space for outdoor dining and summer entertaining. A 40ft side return provides additional versatility, including raised beds, a veranda, artificial grass, and ample storage.
To the rear, a modern garage and adjoining carport—both with electric roller doors—offer secure parking and storage, accessed via a private shared driveway from Three Crowns Road.
Location
Perfectly positioned on Bergholt Road, the property lies just half a mile from Colchester City Centre, ensuring an excellent choice of amenities, services, and shops within easy reach. Several well-regarded schools are also within walking distance.
Colchester North Station is only 250 metres away, offering direct mainline services to London Liverpool Street in approximately 50 minutes.
Points to note
The house is registered in council tax band D with Colchester Borough Council and with payments of £2170.00 pa.
The property is connected to mains gas, water, electricity and sewerage. EPC rating E (being reassessed in September 2025).
The garage and carport are accessed via a shared private driveway leading from Three Crowns Road.
