Hamilton Road, Colchester CO3

**Guide Price £550,000 - £575,000** Elegant, characterful and beautifully presented throughout, this striking four-bedroom bay-fronted Victorian semi-detached residence offers an exceptional blend of period charm and modern refinement. Situated within the highly sought-after Maldon Road district of Lexden, Colchester, the property enjoys a prime position just moments from some of the country’s most regarded private and state schooling, as well as convenient access to the city centre and mainline stations.

Approached via steps from Hamilton Road, the home occupies an elevated and commanding position along the street. Entry is gained through an impressive stained-glass front door which opens into a welcoming and spacious entrance hall, setting the tone for the quality and character found throughout.

The ground floor provides two generous and elegant reception rooms. To the front, the principal living room is bathed in natural light from a prominent bay window and is further enhanced by a beautiful feature fireplace with inset log burner, creating a warm yet refined living space. Positioned to the rear, the formal dining room showcases original floor-to-ceiling double doors that seamlessly connect to the kitchen/breakfast room — ideal for both family living and entertaining.

The kitchen/breakfast room has been thoughtfully designed with a stylish range of fitted units complemented by stone worktops. A striking skylight above floods the space with natural daylight, enhancing the sense of openness. A separate utility room continues the same high-quality finish and practicality, alongside the added convenience of a ground floor cloakroom.

The first floor offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all thoughtfully arranged, and a contemporary three-piece family bathroom suite.

A further staircase rises to the top floor, where the impressive principal bedroom suite occupies the entire level. This superb retreat enjoys far-reaching rooftop views to the rear via a Juliet balcony and is served by its own en-suite bathroom, creating a private and tranquil space.

Externally, the property benefits from a south-westerly facing rear garden. Immediately from the house is a decking area, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, leading onto a predominantly lawned garden. To the rear, a substantial cedar wood home office/studio provides outstanding versatility — perfectly suited for remote working, a home gym, creative studio or a variety of alternative uses.

Rarely available in such a desirable location, this exceptional home combines period elegance with modern convenience. Early internal viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation and lifestyle on offer.
