*Guide Price £275,000 to £ 300,000*
Situated in the heart of Colchester, this prestigious, duplex apartment resides in a magnificent, Grade II listed, former mill with accommodation comprising living room, snug, kitchen with breakfast nook, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The property also benefits from secure, gated parking for two vehicles, lift, and resident gym.

Situated in the heart of Colchester, within walking distance of the high street and glorious Castle Park, the historic Mill building benefits from the protection of its Grade II listing, whilst enjoying all the comforts of the 21st century.
This two-bedroomed, duplex apartment offers stylish living, with a plethora of traditional features - including a magnificent, vaulted ceiling, and a view across the river Colne, towards the park, that is second to none.
Taking its place at the top of the building the living room enjoys a vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers and wonderful views to three aspects. The snug is a quiet place to enjoy a rainy Sunday afternoon, curled up with a book, or, during warmer months, perhaps just take in the views and feel a summer breeze.
A staircase leads down to the kitchen, which provides ample space for food preparation, whilst the adjacent breakfast nook offers its own views of the Colne in addition to a place to eat.
The apartment also benefits from two double bedrooms, with ensuite shower-room to the principal bedroom and further family bathroom.
An excellent opportunity to enjoy a slice of historic living in this beautifully historic city.
