About this property

  • Level access

A beautifully presented four‐bedroom link‐detached home on Septimus Drive, this property offers generous living accommodation, modern upgrades, and an excellent CO4 position ideal for families and commuters. Within walking distance of the highly regarded Gilberd School, and providing superb access to the A12, Colchester Hospital, and North Station with direct trains to London, it delivers convenience and comfort in equal measure.

The current owners have thoughtfully improved the home, including a new boiler, full redecoration, a newly fitted family bathroom, and a newly fitted separate en suite, ensuring it is ready for its next owners to move straight in. The spacious entrance hallway creates an immediate sense of welcome and provides access to the downstairs WC, with the main living spaces arranged on either side. To one side of the ground floor sits the living room, a warm and inviting space centred around an electric fireplace that adds character and a focal point. Patio doors open directly onto the rear garden, allowing natural light to fill the room and offering a seamless connection to outdoor living. Opposite, the kitchen and separate dining room provide excellent versatility for family life. The kitchen offers ample cupboard and worktop space, a stainless‐steel sink and drainer with mixer tap, tiled splashbacks, a built‐in oven, and space for white goods. The dining room is a standout feature, with its bay window creating a bright and elegant setting for meals and entertaining.

Upstairs, the home offers four well‐proportioned bedrooms, each providing flexibility for family needs. The main bedroom is particularly generous and benefits from its own en‐suite shower room. Two further bedrooms comfortably accommodate double beds and furniture, while the fourth bedroom serves perfectly as a single room, nursery, study, or hobby space. The newly fitted family bathroom completes the first floor with a fresh, modern finish.

Externally, the rear garden is a private and beautifully maintained space, featuring a patio area for seating, a lawned section ideal for families, and established shrubland adding greenery and privacy. A new fence has been installed, enhancing both presentation and security. The garden also provides access to the garage, which benefits from lighting, and a side gate leading through to the carport and private driveway. The carport offers parking for two vehicles, while the front of the home features shingle and shrubs for added kerb appeal.
