House For Sale £370,000
Set at the heart of Colchester town centre and within a stones throw of the famous Roman Wall, is this impressive conversion of a former Victorian Workhouse. Inside you will find jaw dropping 14ft high ceilings, large windows and well proportioned spaces. In brief the accommodation extends to 1253 sqft and is in reverse plan. The sleeping accommodation is on the lower ground level and consists of two good size bedrooms and two bathrooms. The living accommodation includes a very impressive open plan sitting and dining area as well as large kitchen/diner and cloaks/wc. The property comes with its own garden garage and off road parking.
GROUND FLOOR
Entering via the attractive and original double entrance doors with fanlight, you enter an impressive vestibule from which you get a great first impression of the ceiling height, which is echoed throughout the ground level. Straight ahead is a large kitchen/diner with wonderfully high ceilings allowing the opportunity for feature lighting which the current owners have installed. The kitchen has been comprehensively fitted with a range of base and wall mounted units topped with granite, built in appliances include gas hob, oven, microwave and extractor fan, fridge, freezer, washer dryer and dishwasher with generous glazed door leading out to the private garden.
At one end of the kitchen is a dining area suitable for housing a small dining table and chairs. From here you can also gain access to an extensive loft area via a ladder. The main sitting room is a most magnificent room again with high ceilings, deep skirting, ornate cornicing and dado rails whilst the radiators are concealed in attractive cabinets with grills. Despite the room size there are four large windows covering a dual aspect. Off the sitting room is a hallway with useful storage cupboard and well appointed cloakroom again with a magnificent high window. From the hall stairs lead to the lower ground floor level.
LOWER GROUND FLOOR
On the lower ground floor level a hallway provides access to the bedrooms. The main bedroom has two double glazed sash windows overlooking the side courtyard. The room enjoys its own en suite facilities with shower cubicle, wash hand basin and toilet. The second bedroom again is of excellent proportion and is currently used as a study and enjoys a dual outlook with sash window overlooking the side courtyard and French doors leading out to a more private terrace which is easterly facing and ideal for enjoying a morning coffee. Once again this room enjoys its own en suite facilities including toilet, wash hand basin and in this instance a bath with shower over.
