The Property
There is a lovely sense of space as soon as you step inside. The accommodation has been thoughtfully updated, combining clean contemporary finishes with a practical layout and plenty of natural light.
The sitting room is particularly generous, with windows to two aspects bringing in lots of light and providing views over the garden. There is plenty of room for larger sofas and furniture without the space feeling crowded, making this an easy room to settle into.
The kitchen has been finished in a smart muted green, with extensive cabinetry, wood-effect worktops and a breakfast bar creating a sociable place for everyday meals or morning coffee. Under-floor heating, Integrated appliances and plenty of storage keep everything streamlined, while a large window overlooks the rear garden.
Alongside this is a separate dining room, comfortably large enough for a full-size dining table and with French doors opening straight onto the garden – ideal when entertaining or simply throwing the doors open in warmer weather. Clever fitted storage beneath the stairs adds another practical touch.
There is also a useful ground-floor WC, accessed from the covered side passage, while the integral garage provides excellent additional storage and further practical space.
Upstairs, four bedrooms are arranged around a bright central landing. The main bedroom is a generous double, while the remaining rooms offer good flexibility for children, guests or home working – as currently demonstrated by one of the bedrooms. The family bathroom has been stylishly updated with a contemporary suite, bath with rainfall shower over and striking green vanity unit.

The Outside
The outside space is another real strength. To the front, the house sits back from the road behind an established garden, with mature trees and planting giving it a pleasantly green outlook. A block-paved driveway provides off-road parking and access to the garage.
The rear garden feels private and established, with mature shrubs, trees and colourful planting surrounding a central lawn. Generous paved areas provide plenty of space for outdoor dining and seating, while the varied planting gives the garden interest and character rather than feeling overly manicured. French doors from the dining room make the connection between house and garden particularly easy.

The Area
West Bergholt remains one of the most popular villages on the outskirts of Colchester, combining a genuine village feel with excellent access into the city. The village has everyday amenities close at hand, including shops, pubs, schooling and recreational facilities, while the surrounding countryside provides plenty of opportunities for walking and enjoying the outdoors.
Colchester city centre is within easy reach for a wider choice of shopping, restaurants and leisure facilities, while commuters are well placed for access to Colchester's mainline railway stations and the A12.
