Full Description: An imposing late Victorian and well-proportioned family home amounting to 3352 sqft. In need of some updating and maintenance. Huge and exciting potential to add value with reconfiguration of the layout and further modernisation.The house had been a long standing popular bed and breakfast with each bedroom having a vanity unit for the comfort of guests. The stairwell and entrances have fire-doors and stud walls creating privacy and security for the bedrooms which, when removed would create large landings for a family residence.Whilst as a bed and breakfast, the kitchen and extension at the rear with the mezzanine floor acted as separate accommodation for the owners. As with neighbouring properties that share a similar design as 28 Inglis Road, this entire area has a large footprint and ideal to renovate into an impressive open plan kitchen that opens out on to the south facing garden.The ground floor comprises; entrance hall with stairs leading to a useful cellar and the first floor. Three reception rooms with ornate coving, ceiling roses, fireplaces, engineered Oak flooring, and bay windows further occupy this floor, along with a family kitchen, a bathroom, and a shower room. The kitchen allows access into the one-bedroom annexe, which would make an ideal separate space for a relative, or an au pair, providing them with independence. The first & second floors boast three double bedrooms, two of which come with en-suite whilst two family shower rooms service the remaining bedrooms.To the front, there are three parking spaces and side access to an easily maintained south-facing rear garden.What's NearbyTrains from Colchester take approximately 50 minutes to London Liverpool Street Station.
