A Spacious And Versatile Four Bedroom Detached Family Home With Self-Contained Annex.

Located in the charming village of Layer Breton, just a short drive from Colchester, this beautifully presented four-bedroom detached home offers generous living space, modern comforts, and a versatile layout ideal for family life and multi-generational living.

Set back from the road with a private driveway and garage, the property welcomes you with a spacious entrance hall that leads to two bright and airy reception rooms, perfect for both formal entertaining and relaxed family gatherings. The heart of the home is the impressive, well-equipped kitchen/diner, which boasts ample storage, integrated appliances, and bi-folding doors opening directly onto the rear garden – ideal for alfresco dining and indoor-outdoor living. A separate utility room and convenient ground floor cloakroom further enhance practicality.

Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with its own en suite shower room, along with a modern family bathroom serving the remaining bedrooms.

Adding to the appeal is a self-contained annex, offering a flexible space ideal for extended family, guests, or even potential rental income. The annex is complete with its own living area, kitchen, bathroom, and private entrance.

Outside, the rear garden provides a secure and tranquil space for children to play or for entertaining friends and family. Mature planting and lawned areas offer both privacy and charm.

Situated close to local amenities, well-regarded schools, and with excellent transport links into Colchester and beyond, this property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious and adaptable family home in a desirable semi-rural location.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all that this exceptional property has to offer.
