About this home

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented, five bedroom contemporary home in one of Chelmsford's most desirable and well-connected enclaves. Perfectly positioned between the thriving city centre, the scenic expanse of Admirals Park, and the vibrant dining and charm of Writtle village, this property flawlessly blends exceptional commuter links, premier schooling, and lush green spaces into the ultimate modern family sanctuary.

Forming part of an exclusive small development, this architectural home showcases modern living, luxurious specifications, and an uncompromising attention to quality. Arranged over three elegantly designed floors, the accommodation is presented in immaculate, turnkey condition throughout. For commuters, the mainline railway station is just 1.2 miles away, offering direct access to London Liverpool Street in 35 minutes.

THE GROUND FLOOR: LIGHT-FILLED LUXURY

The experience begins in a striking entrance hall with stylish tiled flooring, a crafted turning oak staircase, and a dramatic double-height glazed feature that floods the entire core of the home with natural light. Modern comfort is woven into the fabric of the property, featuring underfloor heating throughout the ground floor and a premium integrated speaker system.

The living spaces flow effortlessly:

• The Living Room: An elegant, dual-aspect retreat featuring rich oak flooring, a characterful brick fireplace with a cosy wood-burning stove, and bi-fold doors opening to the garden.

• The Kitchen / Dining / Family Hub: A magnificent, open-plan space designed for entertaining. The bespoke, high-specification kitchen boasts luxurious quartz worktops, a Quooker boiling water tap, and a full suite of premium NEFF appliances (including an induction hob, double oven, microwave, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer). A second set of bi-fold doors creates a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle.

• Cloakroom: A stylish ground-floor WC completes this level.

THE FIRST FLOOR: THE PRINCIPAL SUITES

The first floor hosts three well proportioned, light-filled bedrooms. The principal suite and bedroom two both enjoy beautifully appointed en-suite facilities, while a high-quality family bathroom serves the third bedroom. Every bathroom is finished with high end Duravit sanitaryware, Aqualisa shower systems, elegant tiling, and the added luxury of electric underfloor heating.

THE SECOND FLOOR: VERSATILE LIVING

The top floor offers incredible flexibility for growing families or remote working, comprising two additional large double bedrooms with high vaulted ceilings. This level is served by a second contemporary family bathroom and features a highly practical, dedicated utility room complete with a washer/dryer and a drying area. Abundant eaves storage keeps the living spaces beautifully minimal and uncluttered.

OUTSIDE & PARKING

The exterior complements the interior’s high-end aesthetic with a thoughtfully landscaped front and rear gardens perfect for alfresco dining. The property benefits from an enhanced one-and-a-half garage (which could be converted to an outdoor room) alongside off-street parking for up to four vehicles.

With its exceptional specification, proximity to elite schooling, and rapid connection to London, this is a rare opportunity to secure an immaculate family home where rural charm and city convenience meet.
