2 Bedroom Semi-Detached House for sale in Chelmsford

2 2

Offering all the space and versatility traditionally associated with a three-bedroom home, but with the luxury of two generously proportioned double bedrooms, this beautifully presented semi-detached property combines spacious living accommodation, contemporary finishes and an impressive detached annexe/studio.

Originally designed as a three-bedroom home, the property now offers two excellent-sized double bedrooms whilst retaining the generous ground-floor footprint of its original layout. The result is a particularly spacious and versatile home, ideal for those seeking the additional living and entertaining space of a larger property without necessarily requiring a third bedroom.

The ground-floor accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall, cloakroom and three interconnected reception areas, providing excellent flexibility for everyday living and entertaining. The impressive kitchen/dining room is undoubtedly a standout feature, beautifully appointed with oak-fronted cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces, a central island and vaulted ceiling with rooflights, whilst French doors open directly onto the rear garden. A separate utility room provides additional practicality and storage.

A particularly desirable feature is the split-system air conditioning throughout the property, offering excellent temperature control and comfort all year round. To the first floor are two generously proportioned double bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom.

Externally, the property continues to impress, with a substantial gravelled driveway providing generous off-road parking, whilst the excellent-sized rear garden offers the proportions and outdoor space more commonly associated with a three-bedroom family home. Predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, specimen planting and established borders, the garden also features a delightful paved courtyard, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. An extensive garden lighting system has been thoughtfully installed to illuminate the specimen plants and landscaped areas, creating a wonderful evening atmosphere and allowing the garden to be enjoyed long after sunset.

A further outstanding feature is the detached annexe/studio, providing approximately 165 sq. ft. of versatile additional accommodation, complete with its own contemporary shower room. Ideal for use as guest accommodation, a home office, creative studio or fitness space, subject to any necessary consents. In addition, a substantial newly built garden shed provides excellent storage, complete with fitted racking and its own electricity supply.

Conveniently situated along Writtle Road, the property offers excellent access to Chelmsford city centre, its comprehensive shopping and leisure facilities, railway station and surrounding road network.

In summary, a beautifully presented and exceptionally versatile home offering the ground-floor space, garden proportions and practicality of a traditional three-bedroom property, complemented by two excellent double bedrooms, full air conditioning, a detached en-suite annexe and a beautifully landscaped garden designed to be enjoyed both day and night. Internal viewing is strongly recommended.Room Descriptions
