** GUIDE PRICE £600,000 - £650,000 ** ** NO ONWARD CHAIN ** A hidden gem in the centre of north Colchester, we are delighted to present this exquisite four/five bedroom property, unique in this part of the town. A beautiful historic building, with features dating back to the 17th century, the current owners have sympathetically extended and modernised the property, which now offers all the comforts of modern life, with the charm and character of a period building.

Downstairs on entry there are three large reception rooms, one with a showstopping original fireplace, complete with woodburning stove. The gourmet kitchen is at the heart of the home, with modern appliances coupled with sleek countertops and ample storage, as well as original timber beams showcasing the heritage of the property, this is perfect for both family breakfasts and for entertaining friends.

There is also a downstairs bathroom with a shower. The highlight of the ground floor is the new extension, with underfloor heating throughout, this vast living/dining space boasts sliding doors which open out into a large and well-maintained garden and patio area, which is wonderful for those balmy summer afternoons.

Upstairs there are four generous double bedrooms, two of which boast modern en suite bathrooms. A beautifully finished family bathroom serves the other bedrooms. The master suite includes a dressing room, as well as an enviable bathroom, again boasting underfloor heating.

The outside enjoys an exceptional porcelain patio, and grassed lawn, with raised flower beds offering everything an enthusiastic gardener might want. The property benefits from a gravel drive, with ample parking for multiple vehicles to the rear, along with a large double garage.

This truly magnificent home is one of a kind in Colchester, with exceptional local schools and amenities, links to mainline railway and easy access to the A12, the property offers everything a growing family could need.
