Are you yearning for an as-new executive home in the leafy heart of Glendowie? Step this way. Meticulously designed and built by Credabuild, 8 Colchester Avenue is a clear frontrunner in the style stakes, with timeless street appeal, generous proportions, and quality finishes often missing in this category. Entertaining and easy family living are front and centre. Rooms are beautifully scaled still calm and neutral, but layered with warmth and texture. Gorgeous oak floors are perfectly paired with a striking wood-grain kitchen and an extra-large walk-in pantry that happily hides the mess. There are two fabulous living zones: relaxed, open-plan and a separate sitting room complete with gas fire and a touch of wall drama for extra cosiness.At the perfect axis, wide sliders open at right angles to the show-stopping outdoor living area. Covered by an electric louvre, there s ample room for dining and lounging; a true year-round extension of the indoors. Two can comfortably work from home, with a dedicated study on the ground floor, while upstairs, a flexible landing space can serve as an additional office, gaming hub, or whatever life demands. Four extra-large bedrooms include a wow-factor master retreat with one of the largest walk-in wardrobes you ll find, a gloriously large ensuite, and views across Glendowie with a glimpse of the sea. The oversized garage is carpeted, light-filled, and fitted with windows and a door, easily doubling as a rumpus or games room plus there are two off-street parks for the cars. Set on a prime, no-exit street that ends at Glendowie Park, which is a five-minute walk to both Glendowie College and Glendowie Primary School.
