A rare opportunity to purchase a SUBSTANTIAL CHARACTER 5 BEDROOM DETACHED HOUSE on an unusually LARGE PLOT OF ABOUT 0.69 OF AN ACRE, subject to land survey. Available for the first time in a good many years and offering tremendous scope for a buyer to improve, possibly further extend and adapt to their own tastes and requirements. It may also be of interest to DEVELOPER AND BUILDER CLIENTS as it has POTENTIAL FOR REDEVELOPMENT, again subject to the necessary consents. No planning applications have been put forward and no conditional sale will be agreed however there are a number of similar size plots where redevelopment has been permitted. The property is located on the favoured and convenient West side of Chelmsford being within walking distance of the City centre and station and is virtually "hidden" from view by established lime trees to the front. This is without doubt a unique opportunity as properties with this much potential on this size plot, close to Chelmsford are very rarely available.

GARDENS
Undoubtedly the main feature of this property is its unusually large plot for a property being within such close proximity to Chelmsford City centre and station. The plot is approximately 0.69 of an acre, subject to land survey. To the front, there is a most pleasant and very private area of garden bounded to the front by well established lime trees which we understand have Tree Preservation Orders on them, the boundaries either side at the front are also mature and give excellent privacy. There is a gravelled driveway providing off road parking for a number of vehicles and certainly there is potential for the erection of a garage subject to the necessary consents. There is a wide area to the right hand side of the property which gives excellent potential for further extension, again subject to any necessary consents. This area then leads into the first part of the rear garden which is very private with mature trees, plants and shrubs etc and to the left hand side of the property there is a side access gate. From here the garden meanders past large trees and shrubs into a further lawned area where there is hedging going across the garden separating the rear part and where there is a gate. The further part of the garden is currently overgrown but again has many mature trees and shrubs etc. This area of garden does need considerable clearance if it were to be used as part of a more formal garden.
