3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Martin Hunt Drive, Stanway, Colchester CO3

The Property
Step inside and the entrance hall keeps things practical from the start, with useful understairs storage and a downstairs WC.

The kitchen/diner sits to the front, fitted with cream cabinetry, wood-effect worktops and an integrated oven and hob. There’s space for a dining table too, making it somewhere you can actually sit down for breakfast rather than balancing a bowl on the worktop.

At the back, the lounge is a great size and has plenty of room for a couple of sofas without feeling crowded. French doors open directly onto the garden, so in warmer weather it’s easy to throw them open and let the outside become part of the living space.

Upstairs is where this house does particularly well. All three bedrooms are doubles, so there’s no awkward little box room masquerading as bedroom three. The main bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, while bedroom two stretches across the carport and is particularly generous. Bedroom three is another comfortable double and would work equally well for children, guests or working from home.

A family bathroom with a white three-piece suite completes the first floor.

The Outside
The rear garden is enclosed and nicely manageable, with a mix of lawn and paved areas giving you space to sit out, barbecue and enjoy the sunshine without spending every weekend maintaining it. There’s also a separate gravelled seating area towards the end of the garden and a timber shed for storage.

Parking is another big plus. A substantial covered carport to the side provides excellent off-road parking – particularly useful for a household with more than one car.

The Area
Martin Hunt Drive sits in Stanway, a popular spot to the west of Colchester that works particularly well for anyone wanting everyday amenities close by while still having easy routes in and out of the city.

Stanway has plenty to make day-to-day life straightforward, with supermarkets, shops, restaurants and leisure facilities nearby, including those around Tollgate and Stane Retail Park. There are also schools in the wider area, while the A12 is easily accessible for journeys towards Chelmsford, Ipswich and beyond.

Colchester city centre is within easy reach too, offering a wider choice of shopping, eating out and rail connections to London Liverpool Street.
