  • Three reception rooms

  • Three bedrooms and a loft room

This attractive semi-detached Victorian home occupies a well-regarded position on Constantine Road, Colchester and has been thoughtfully extended over time to create generous and flexible accommodation arranged across multiple levels. The property combines period character with practical living space, offering a well-balanced layout that suits both everyday family life and more formal entertaining, complemented by a private, south-west facing rear garden and additional summerhouse/studio space.

The ground floor accommodation is entered via a welcoming entrance hall that sets the tone for the character and scale found throughout the house. From here, the principal sitting room is positioned to the front of the property and benefits from generous proportions and a traditional bay window, creating a bright and comfortable reception space suited to both everyday use and more formal occasions.
A further adjacent reception room provides a more intimate and versatile room, ideal as a secondary reception or quiet retreat, with a natural flow through to the adjoining kitchen which forms a practical and well-connected part of the ground floor, enjoying good natural light and direct access to the garden beyond. The layout supports everyday living while also accommodating the extended nature of the house, ensuring the ground floor feels cohesive and well balanced, with each room clearly defined yet comfortably linked.
The dining room and study area offers a flexible and well-proportioned space, comfortably accommodating everyday dining or home working as required, whilst bi-folding doors offer direct access to the garden making the rear of the house at one with the outdoors.
The first-floor accommodation is arranged around a central landing and provides well-balanced bedroom and bathroom space. The main bedroom is a generous and comfortable room, enhanced by the addition of a separate dressing area and a modern en-suite shower room, creating a private and well-considered principal suite. To the front of the house, a large double bedroom enjoys good natural light and retains the proportions typical of the Victorian era.
The family shower room is neatly arranged and finished in a contemporary style, featuring a walk-in shower and modern fittings. A window provides natural light and ventilation, ensuring the space feels bright, practical and well suited to everyday family use.
In addition, a loft room is accessed via a steep staircase and provides useful ancillary space, ideal for storage or occasional use, further extending the versatility of the accommodation.
Outside, the property enjoys a generous and well-established south-west facing rear garden that has been thoughtfully arranged to provide both structure and flexibility. A paved terrace sits immediately behind the house, creating a natural space for outdoor seating and entertaining, while the garden beyond is laid mainly to lawn and interspersed with planted borders, mature shrubs and defined pathways that add interest throughout the seasons.
Towards the rear of the garden is a detached summerhouse / studio, offering valuable additional space suitable for home working, creative use or storage. The garden is enclosed and private, with a pleasant sense of separation from neighbouring properties, making it well suited to both everyday use and more relaxed outdoor living.
