Details

This beautifully presented, four-bedroom, semi-detached cottage can be found in the picturesque village of Easthorpe. Built in the 1920's as farm workers accommodation, this rarely available family home has been dramatically improved and extended over the past few years. It now benefits from four good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. Downstairs the lounge is offered with an open fire, French doors opening into a large living/family room, which in turn has tri-folding doors that open into a south-facing 100' rear garden. The recently fitted kitchen includes moonstone worktops and integrated appliances. There is also a useful utility room and a downstairs shower room. To the front is a shingled area where four cars could easily be parked off-road. VIEWING ESSENTIAL.
Colchester town centre and its High Street shops, cafes and leisure facilities are within easy reach, and there is also an excellent range of schools in both the private and public sector. Colchester North Station; Marks Tey and Kelvedon railway stations offer direct links to London's Liverpool Street with services running every 30 minutes. The popular choice of schooling is either in Lexden, with the Royal Grammar School; Girls High; Oxford House and St Marys Senior School, or Holmwood House on the outskirts of Lexden. Alternatively, a short drive to Copford for St Marys Prep school for girls. All are within easy driving distance.

Easthorpe village sits to the south of Colchester and is a short drive to the town centre. Conveniently located for access to transport links via the A12, and London commuters at either Kelvedon or Marks Tey railway stations. The village is surrounded by open countryside and is very popular with cyclists and walkers alike. There is a real community spirit, as well as diversity within the village. It is a short distance from its neighbouring villages of Messing and Copford, and both provide primary schooling and local public houses.
