Where is Colchester Avenue?
Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac in the ever-popular area of Bowerham, 23 Colchester Avenue offers a quiet lifestyle with minimal passing traffic. This residential setting is ideal for families and professionals alike, with several highly regarded schools close by-including local primary schools and Lancaster Royal Grammar School for Boys. Williamson Park, with its scenic walks and open green space, is just a five-minute stroll away-perfect for weekend outings or a daily walk. With shops and supermarkets nearby and good transport links to the wider city, this location balances convenience with a sense of retreat.
Colchester Avenue is a detached home that makes an immediate impression.
Set on a generous plot, this striking mock Tudor-style property blends timeless character with practical modern living. Step inside and you’ll find spacious, light-filled rooms with neutral décor throughout. The ground floor suits modern family living with a separate front lounge and a large open-plan kitchen diner at the rear.
The kitchen is sleek and contemporary, finished in cashmere-hued handleless units with quartz countertops and a large breakfast bar providing excellent storage. This entire space stretches the width of the house and incorporates a sitting area bathed in light from the French doors, with a designated dining zone in the centre. There is also internal access to the garage, currently used for utilities, and a discreet ground-floor W.C tucked beneath the stairs.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms. The main bedroom overlooks the front garden and includes built-in wardrobes and an en-suite with a shower and toilet. Bedroom two is another spacious double with pleasant rear views across the garden and nearby allotments. Bedrooms three and four are smaller but still well proportioned-ideal as single rooms, guest rooms or a home office. A well-presented bathroom is accessed from the landing and features a full-length bath with overhead shower, light tiling, and a well-positioned window that brightens the space.
Outside, the French doors open onto a raised patio-perfect for a morning coffee or evening unwind. The rear garden is beautifully landscaped over three tiers, featuring symmetrical paving, well-kept lawns and mature flowerbeds along each side. At the lowest tier, Burrow Beck gently flows through the bottom of the garden, accompanied by a small decked seating area above the water-a peaceful corner to relax.
