Highfield Rise, Althorne, Chelmsford

Set within the semi-rural village of Althorne, Essex, this spacious and versatile detached bungalow occupies a generous plot with an impressive in-and-out driveway, providing ample off-road parking for numerous vehicles.

The accommodation begins with a porch and welcoming entrance hall, leading through to a bright and sociable open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining room. This generous living space is ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining, with the kitchen featuring a refitted range of units and plenty of worktop space. A separate utility room adds further practicality, while a large walk-in storage cupboard provides very useful additional space.

The home is thoughtfully arranged to suit flexible family living. To one side are two double bedrooms, served by a three piece family bathroom suite with a shower over the bath. The opposite side offers two further double bedrooms, both benefitting from en-suite facilities. Bedroom one and bedroom four feature fitted wardrobes, while the wardrobes in bedroom two are also set to remain. This split layout makes the property particularly well suited to multi-generational living, visiting guests, or families seeking additional privacy.

Externally, the property continues to impress, with a well-maintained rear garden stocked with colourful flowers, mature shrubs and planted borders, alongside a generous lawn and paved patio seating area. There is also a useful outbuilding with power and lighting, offering excellent potential as a workshop, hobby room, garden office or additional storage.

The property also benefits from 12 solar panels with a 7kw battery, allowing energy to be generated and stored for later use, helping to reduce electricity usage and lessen household bills. An EV point is installed too, adding further convenience.
