Positioned at the end of an attractive cul-de-sac within the highly desirable Highwoods development, this substantial four/five-bedroom detached family home combines versatile living space with an enviable location. Perfectly placed for The Gilberd School, local primary schools, and a wide range of amenities, it also offers excellent transport connections and parking for multiple vehicles.
The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the home, giving access to a bright bay-fronted lounge, a study or fifth bedroom, a practical cloakroom/utility room, and the heart of the house – a superb open-plan kitchen/diner. Recently re-designed, the kitchen boasts sleek units, ample storage including larders, an American-style fridge freezer space, a breakfast bar, wine fridge, integrated dishwasher, electric hob with extractor, and double eye-level ovens. Dual aspect windows, a glazed rear door, and bi-fold doors to the garden flood the space with natural light, making it perfect for both family life and entertaining.
The first floor offers four bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes, triple front-facing windows, and a private en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms and a well-proportioned single are served by a modern family bathroom with bath, shower screen, WC, and wash hand basin.
Outside, the property features a large driveway accommodating up to six vehicles and a delightful south-east facing rear garden, mainly laid to lawn with a stone patio, shed, planted borders, and gated side access.
Highwoods is home to excellent facilities including a Tesco Extra, local shops, post office, doctor’s surgery, dentist, and vet. Colchester North station, just a five-minute drive away, provides direct trains to London Liverpool Street, while frequent bus services connect to the city centre and Colchester General Hospital. Easy access to the A12 and Northern Gateway leisure complex completes the picture, making this an outstanding home in a superb location.
