This exceptional detached four bedroom bungalow, beautifully positioned along one of Wivenhoe's most sought after residential roads. Moments from the waterfront, local cafes, shops, great schools, and train station, this home offers an effortless blend of village charm and commuter convenience.

Sought After Wivenhoe Location

Step inside and you’re greeted by a wonderfully open and inviting living space, anchored by a striking freestanding fireplace. The room flows seamlessly into the dining area, with ample space for family gatherings around the dining table or the built in breakfast bar that overlooks the contemporary kitchen. This features a vaulted ceiling kitchen illuminated by a generous rooflight. This bright, airy heart of the home is designed for both everyday living and relaxed entertaining.

A central corridor leads to three well proportioned bedrooms, one with direct access to the front garden, along with the stylish family bathroom and three useful storage cupboards. The master suite sits peacefully to the rear, complete with a modern en suite shower room and French doors opening directly onto the garden, a private retreat to begin and end each day.

Outside, the property continues to delight. The front offers paved off road parking for two vehicles, while the expansive landscaped rear garden provides a truly special backdrop for outdoor living. Thoughtfully designed for relaxation, creativity, and connection with nature, it features a spacious workshop/home office and, as its enchanting centrepiece, a bespoke hand built hobbit house, a unique and whimsical addition that brings charm and imagination to the space. The bungalow also has solar panels on the front and rear roofs.

Every detail of this home has been carefully considered to create a harmonious balance of comfort, style, and modern family living. This property offers a place to grow, to unwind, and to enjoy the very best of life in Wivenhoe.

About Colchester

Historic Colchester is proud of its ancient Roman history and is now home to a population of over 200,000 and the British Army’s 16 Air Assault Brigade. It has a high employment rate, a thriving local economy, a great shopping scene and vibrant nightlife, and is just 42 minutes by train from London.

Colchester, situated in Essex, has some fantastic transport links, which add to its appeal. The A12 connects the town to London, and direct trains run from Colchester to London Liverpool Street. The town is only a short drive to the beaches and sailing at Mersea Island, and an hour’s drive from the beautiful Suffolk towns of Aldeburgh and Southwold.

In 2022, Colchester was given City status to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations. The Platinum Jubilee civic honours required applicants to demonstrate their royal associations and cultural heritage. Plus, their local identity and communities meant they deserved to be granted city status.
