About this home

GUIDE PRICE £855,000 - £880,000 CHAIN FREE | A substantial five/six-bedroom detached family home in a highly sought-after Chelmsford location.

Ideally positioned for Chelmsford city centre, this impressive and substantial five-bedroom detached family home offers generous, versatile accommodation, excellent entertaining space and a highly desirable location.

Approached via a large gated driveway, the property immediately offers privacy, excellent kerb appeal and ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. A spacious entrance hall provides a welcoming introduction to the well-planned accommodation.

At the heart of the home is a stylish open-plan kitchen and breakfast room, complemented by a discreet separate back kitchen, making it ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining. The ground floor also features three versatile reception rooms, comprising two generous reception rooms and a formal dining room, alongside a study that could also be utilised as a sixth bedroom. A modern ground floor shower room completes this level.

The principal living spaces enjoy excellent access to the rear garden, with two sets of double patio doors from the main living room, further double doors from the dining room and direct access from the back kitchen. This creates a fantastic flow between the indoor and outdoor spaces, particularly suited to entertaining and family gatherings.

Upstairs, a spacious central landing provides additional flexible space, ideal for a reading area, children's play space or informal seating. The impressive principal bedroom benefits from a dedicated dressing area and private en-suite bathroom. There are four further well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which also benefit from en-suite facilities, together with a modern family bathroom.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The gated frontage provides both privacy and security, while the generous rear garden wraps around the property and features a substantial terrace, perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining during the warmer months.

The flexible layout has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate modern family life, with plenty of scope for a games room, snug, home office or additional bedroom space if required. A large loft area also provides further potential, subject to the necessary consents.
