Description

Nestled in the heart of the popular village of Great Horkesley, this charming four-bedroom detached family home offers the perfect blend of countryside tranquility and urban convenience. Located just to the north of Colchester, the property is within walking distance of two delightful village pubs and the well-regarded Bishop William Ward Primary School. Its excellent transport links include easy access to the A12, Colchester General Hospital, North Station, and the Trinity Secondary School on Chesterwell, making it ideal for families and professionals alike.

Boasting planning permission for an extension to the rear (please see the plans in the photos) this fabulous home offers the opportunity to create a stylish hub for the home, backing onto the south facing gardens.

The ground floor boasts versatile living spaces, including a welcoming entrance hallway, a study, and a spacious lounge with French doors leading to the rear garden. Additional rooms include a cozy sitting room and a well-appointed kitchen with an open-plan dining area, complemented by a utility cupboard and a convenient cloakroom. Upstairs, the first floor features three generously sized double bedrooms, a comfortable single bedroom, a modern family bathroom, and an en-suite bathroom to complete the principal bedroom.

Adding further value is a superbly sized studio attached to the ground floor, accessed from the rear garden, perfect for a home office, gym, or creative space. Outside, the front of the property features a gravel in-and-out driveway with off-road parking for three to four vehicles. The rear garden is a delightful retreat, with side access, shingle seating areas, well-maintained mature vegetable plots, and a shed. Practical features include an outside tap and a new oil boiler installed in November 2024, ensuring efficient heating alongside the oil tank.

This property combines ample living space, modern amenities, and a sought-after village location, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a forever home, with potential to further improve it with the planned extension.
