Welcome to Birchwood Rise – modern, relaxed living near the city
Set within leafy surroundings just minutes from Colchester town centre, Birchwood Rise is a great place to put down roots. Designed with modern living in mind and surrounded by open green space, you can choose from a range of two, three and four-bedroom homes. With excellent transport links, local schools and everything you need close by, this new development ticks all the right boxes for families, commuters and first-time buyers alike.
A new home at Birchwood Rise means a fresh start in a well-connected community. Surrounded by a mature tree border, you’ll have plenty of space inside and out, energy-efficient features and quality finishes throughout – all set along peaceful tree-lined roads that offer a quieter pace of life just outside the city.
You’ll find everyday essentials within easy reach, with Stane Retail Park 0.8 miles away and the Tollgate Centre just over a mile from home. Colchester town centre is 4.7 miles away for shops, restaurants and entertainment, and both Lexden Hospital and Colchester General Hospital are close by too.
With families in mind, land has been allocated for a new two-form entry primary school and early years nursery. You’ll also find open green spaces that surround the development, various play areas and community infrastructure on-site – giving you that perfect balance between convenience and nature.
Whether you drive, cycle or take the train, getting around is easy. Road access is available via London Road (B1408) and Red Panda Road, while for rail travel, Marks Tey station is just 1.9 miles away with direct trains to London. For environmentally friendly travel, there’s a cycleway that borders the development too.
