Lexden is a desirable area of Colchester, known for its larger properties and family-friendly atmosphere. The proximity to good schools like St Benedict’s Catholic College and Prettygate Infant School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, adds to its appeal. Colchester town centre is within reasonable commuting distance via car, and there are also train stations nearby, providing access to other parts of Essex and beyond. The property itself appears to be in excellent condition. The images show a recently renovated or modern interior with high-quality fixtures and fittings. There is no visible evidence of wear and tear or the need for repairs. The modern kitchen and bathrooms are particularly noteworthy. The substantial garden is a key feature. It includes a swimming pool, a large lawn, and additional outbuildings, offering ample space for outdoor activities and relaxation. Considering the list price of £1,450,000, and comparing it to the average house price in the area (£348,914) and the average price per square foot (£356), it’s difficult to give a definitive price assessment without the property’s square footage. However, given the property’s size (implied by the number of bedrooms and bathrooms), high-quality renovation, desirable location, and extensive garden, the price appears to fall within the range of similar properties in the area. While it is at the higher end of the market, the features justify the price. More information is needed to provide a precise price per sqft analysis. The property benefits from features such as a pool, garage, and what appears to be a home office/studio. These add to its overall desirability.
Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
