A duplex apartment of townhouse proportions within a converted former hospital and school. Originally, Hillsleigh House was a private estate in the heart of Colchester that dates back to the 1700s with additions from the 1800s and 1900s. The different architectural styles can be appreciated from East Hill and from within the private grounds. Now called Hillsleigh Mews, the development consists of an upper and lower estate combining a Mews block with upper houses and apartments that surround an attractive privately gated communal garden currently maintained by the management company. Residents of this apartment can enjoy the communal gardens as well as their own raised terrace for more private gatherings.

There are three bedrooms and a family bathroom on the ground floor including the master bedroom with en-suite. The front door, that is accessed from the communal hall from the apartment block, leads into a hallway that bisects the bedrooms from the living area, stairs lead down to the basement level which houses a further bedroom measuring over 26ft in length and a further reception room/ office.
