Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Welshwood Park location
  • Well presented family home
  • Two reception rooms
  • Kitchen and utility room
  • Study / music room
  • Four bedrooms
  • Garage and off road parking
  • Gardens
Located in highly desirable Welshwood Park, this detached family home offers accommodation comprising two reception rooms, study / music room, kitchen and utility room, cloakroom, principal bedroom with ensuite, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property also benefits from a garage, off-road parking and gardens.

This beautifully presented, detached executive home enjoys an enviable position in Welshwood Park, Colchester, where the ancient woodlands create a wonderful year-round backdrop.
The property is set back from the road, with an area of lawn - enhanced by mature shrubs - and a block paved driveway which provides off-road parking and leads to the entrance door.
Once inside, an elegant hallway provides a place in which to greet guests before moving through to the main living accommodation.
The dual aspect living room benefits from a deep bay window, allowing light to flood into the room, whilst an inset wood burner provides additional warmth and ambience during the cooler months.
For those who enjoy formal dining, the adjacent dining room has plenty of room for a table and seated guests, and with double doors opening onto the terrace, the party can flow outside.
The kitchen is presented in ivory country style, and provides plenty of space for food preparation, with an archway leading into the utility room which ensures all laundry paraphernalia is kept out of the way of the general household.
A study / music room offers a quiet place for those working from home or require a quiet spot away from the hubbub of a busy family home.
A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from its own ensuite facilities, whilst the remaining three bedrooms share use of the family bathroom.
Outside, the garden commences with a paved terrace - ideal for outside dining and entertaining. From here, steps lead up to a lawn, interspersed with mature trees, and bordered by further trees and shrubs.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on July 26, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on July 26, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on October 9, 2023 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
