Description

This detached family residence is nestled within approximately 2.5 acres of mixed grounds and boasts a wealth of potential for renovation and reconfiguration. Offering around 2,210 sq ft of internal space along with an additional 1,790 sq ft in versatile outbuildings, this property totals about 4,000 sq ft of usable area, making it ripe for transformation into a more modern family home or investment opportunity. The ground floor features a welcoming entrance hall that leads to three distinct reception areas: a snug and formal sitting room at the front, and a spacious dining room that connects to a conservatory at the rear, creating a bright hub for entertaining. The kitchen/breakfast room is generously sized but could benefit from updates to maximize its functionality, adjacent to practical utility space and storage solutions. Upstairs hosts five well-proportioned bedrooms, alongside a family bathroom and the principal bedroom equipped with a dedicated dressing room—an ideal canvas for enhancements according to individual needs. Beyond the home, the expansive grounds include an impressive array of outbuildings—a three-bay garage with ample upper storage, an additional triple garage, workshop, and various sheds. These structures offer significant opportunities for conversion into home offices, gyms, stabling options or even annex accommodations (subject to appropriate permissions). The mature gardens incorporate lawns and wildlife areas with established trees and a pond; these elements provide not just beauty but also opportunities for further landscaping improvements. Strategically located near Chelmsford—benefiting from excellent transport links—and surrounded by local amenities and schools, this property invites discerning buyers looking to invest in both residential comfort and future potential.
