Description
Kilnfield Barns is more than a home — it’s a statement of taste, lifestyle, and long-term value. This is a four-bedroom barn conversion of architectural merit, offering a seamless blend of heritage character and uncompromising modern luxury.
Accessed via private electric gates, the property is part of an exclusive development of just eight bespoke residences, tucked away in a sought-after CM1 countryside setting just 3 miles from Chelmsford City Centre. Here, you’ll find tranquillity without isolation, and design without compromise.
Finished to the highest standard across approx. 1,991 sq. ft, the interiors are defined by vaulted ceilings, original beams, and a layout that feels both dramatic and deeply liveable. The open-plan living space centres around a bold wall-to-wall media wall, grounded by marble flooring and softened with a Farrow & Ball palette that runs consistently throughout the home.
At the heart of it all sits a showpiece Thomas Hammond kitchen, handmade and fitted with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, quartz worktops, hand-crafted cabinetry, and a full-height wine fridge. Whether you’re hosting, cooking, or simply unwinding, this is a kitchen designed for both show and soul.
Upstairs, herringbone flooring leads you to four well-proportioned bedrooms, each finished with premium deep-pile carpet and bespoke joinery. The fully stone-clad bathrooms offer spa-level luxury, complete with digital brassware and architectural lighting.
The layout includes a utility room with side access, and notably, planning permission is already granted for a further 200 sq. ft ground floor extension — perfect for a study, home cinema or children’s snug.
Outside, a fully walled, wraparound garden offers rare privacy and far-reaching countryside views. A traditional oak-framed dual carport with EV charging point is included, alongside ample guest parking. Residents also enjoy shared access to a landscaped communal meadow and amenity garden — ideal for morning coffee walks, dog runs or quiet evenings with a book.
For peace of mind, the home includes CCTV as standard, a full alarm system, and secure multi-point locking. An optional Control4 smart home system is available, integrating lighting, heating, sound, and security at the touch of a button.
Located in a prestigious CM1 postcode, the property sits just 10 minutes from Chelmsford’s vibrant city centre and station, offering 35-minute direct trains into London Liverpool Street. The area is home to some of Essex’s best schools, including KEGS, CCHS, New Hall, and Felsted.
