A luxurious and unique six bedroom detached residence located in one of Colchester City’s most prestigious roads. 1 St Clare Road has undergone a significant transformation extending the property to a total floor space amounting to approximately 6129 sq/ft. A project that has taken eight years of meticulous planning and attention to detail from concept to finish.
ACCOMMODATION
The property is set nicely back from the road accessed via a sweeping shingle carriage driveway that in turn offers parking for numerous vehicles.
With seven reception rooms including an impressive open plan kitchen / living dining area that seamlessly opens out to the rear terrace and pool, the residence offers exceptionally versatile living accommodation set in a plot of approximately one third of an acre.
There is a one / two bed annex with its own private entrance that could be connected to what is currently a cavernous family games room / gym. This has been future proofed with electrics and plumbing for the installation of a sizable kitchen / living area should a bigger annex be required.
The remaining downstairs reception rooms include a separate spacious living room, music room / boot room, study and annex living room. The impressive entrance vestibule contains practical storage as well as the inner hallway that leads to the open plan living area that also provides a bar and wine store and extra storage behind hidden contemporary slatted designed doors.
Upstairs, the property offers four double bedrooms, each with their own en-suite. The impressive principle suite spans the rear of the house and includes a balcony that enjoys views over the rear garden. It is complete with its own sofa area, his and hers walk through wardrobe and stylish bath and shower room.
A further family reception room with sofas, desks and gaming area is accessed by double doors from the landing that in turn lead to two further double bedrooms that gives it a feel that this is its own “apartment”. The fourth bedroom is also designed in a way that provides two separate areas for personal space and sleeping as well as an en-suite with a practical Jack and Jill entrance with the landing.
OUTSIDE
The rear terrace, garden and pool is a relaxation and entertaining dream. The rear elevations have been meticulously designed to mirror the attractive timber terracing and outbuildings at the back of the garden. Tinted glass roofing panels provide natural light into the house whilst when the sliding doors are all opened, creates a seamless transition between inside and out. Further paved areas provide excellent additions for al-fresco dining and entertaining. Carefully planned year round green planting borders provide a separation to the lawn with leafy trees around the garden and low level properties beyond, the gardens also enjoy a high degree of privacy. There is a summer house / garden shed at the rear border as well as a more contemporary structure with versatile use for a cinema / home office or garden room.
