4 bed detached house for sale

Evergreen Drive, Colchester CO4

Exceptional detached four double bedroom family home situated within the highly popular residential area of St Johns in Colchester, close to excellent schools, local amenities, and commuter links.

Open Day for Viewing: Saturday 6th June. 10.00am to 1.00pm.

Offering spacious and versatile accommodation the home includes three reception rooms, an open plan kitchen diner, four decent sized double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a cloakroom, private rear garden and a large driveway with ample parking.

Through the double opening front door is a welcoming hallway hosting a glass panelled and oak staircase. From the hallway is access to the kitchen/diner, the lounge, the boot room (through to office) and cloakroom.

The 33sq.m living room runs front to back of the house with a large window to the front and double patio doors out to the conservatory at the rear. A log burner sits in an inglenook fireplace with stone mantle. Double doors open to the kitchen/diner.

The kitchen area boasts a large island with breakfast bar. On the island is an integrated induction hob with a pop-up extractor and a double sink with boiling tap. The dishwasher is also integrated within the island. Designed and installed by Nicholas Anthony, the cottage style kitchen has units (in-frame cabinetry) under the worktop of the island and a wall of units house the fridge/freezer, an oven, dual microwave oven, a steam oven and a wine fridge (dual control).

In the dining area a table for ten would not be a squeeze. Access to the garden is via six metres of bi-fold doors that open up to bring the outside in and the inside out. Great for socialising and for those hot summer days.

From the kitchen is a utility room with room for a free-standing fridge/freezer and also for a stacked washing machine and tumble drier. There is a single sink with drainer, more kitchen units, a double-glazed external door and here you will find the boiler for the gas central heating.

Electric underfloor heating warms the kitchen and utility room with three programmable zones.

Off the hallway is a boot room with clever storage and through to the converted double garage, currently used as an office and TV room. Of course, this could be a third reception room or even a fifth bedroom. Room warmed by underfloor electric heating.

Upstairs are four double bedrooms, three with built in wardrobes. The main bedroom has a modern en-suite shower room. The family four-piece bathroom completes the first floor.

Outside, to the rear is a fenced in private garden which backs on to St Johns Church. The garden is laid to lawn with a patio and also includes composite decking in front of a summer house, a large shed, a hot tub and an enclosed area with potting shed and vegetable patch. Access to the garden is on both sides of the house. To the front the driveway can accommodate up to six vehicles.
