Description

**** GUIDE PRICE: £700,000 - £725,000 ****
**** NO ONWARD CHAIN ****

Palmer and Partners are pleased to present to the market this exceptional and rarely available four bedroom detached bungalow, located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in a highly sought-after central Chelmsford location. Occupying a generous plot of approximately one-fifth of an acre, this unique home offers spacious and versatile accommodation, ideal for families, downsizers, or buyers looking for a property with scope for personalisation.

Offered with no onward chain, the property presents an exciting opportunity for those wishing to create their dream home in a superbly connected yet peaceful setting. It also holds fantastic potential for further enhancement, with planning applications currently in place for both extension and possible subdivision, making this a compelling proposition for developers or buyers looking to maximise value.

Situated within walking distance of Chelmsford’s vibrant City Centre and mainline railway station, residents will benefit from direct services to London Liverpool Street, Colchester, and Ipswich—making this a commuter's dream. A comprehensive range of local amenities, excellent schools, bus links, restaurants, cafés, and scenic green spaces such as Central Park and Admiral’s Park are all just moments away.

Approached via a private, large stone driveway providing ample off-street parking, the property is set back from the road and enjoys a generous, fully established wrap-around garden, with mature borders and an attractive south-facing frontage. A detached single garage to the side provides additional storage or workshop potential.

The front patio leads to a welcoming entrance hall with plenty of space for coats, shoes, and storage, which in turn opens to the heart of the home – a bright and airy split-level lounge/diner. With ample natural light and access to a private internal courtyard, this spacious living area offers wonderful potential for both quiet relaxation and entertaining guests. The adjoining dual-aspect dining room flows seamlessly into a practical galley-style kitchen, which includes space for freestanding appliances and offers scope for modernisation.

The bungalow offers four generously proportioned double bedrooms, two of which feature stunning vaulted ceilings, adding to the property’s sense of space and individuality. The principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom, while the third bedroom features a small walk-in shower with potential to convert into a full en-suite if desired. The remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family shower room.

Externally, the wrap-around garden is predominantly laid to lawn and beautifully bordered with mature planting, offering a private and tranquil retreat. With the front of the property enjoying a sunny south-facing aspect, the outdoor space is ideal for gardening enthusiasts, children, pets, or al fresco entertaining.

While the property would benefit from some modernisation and updating throughout, it offers enormous potential to create a truly bespoke and characterful home in one of Chelmsford’s most desirable locations.

Early internal viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate the scope, space, and setting on offer.
