Russell Gardens, Chelmsford, CM2

4 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Chelmsford

4 4 2

Offered for sale with NO ONWARD CHAIN is this substantial four bedroom detached family home, situated within the established and popular Russell Gardens. The property has been well cared for and is presented in a clean and tidy condition, although it would now benefit from general modernisation and updating throughout, offering an excellent opportunity for purchasers to create a home to their own taste.

The generous ground floor accommodation comprises an entrance hall, large lounge, separate dining room, fitted kitchen, family room overlooking the rear garden, study and ground floor WC, together with an integral garage. To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a particularly spacious principal bedroom with en-suite bathroom, in addition to the family bathroom.

Externally, the property benefits from an extensive driveway providing ample off-road parking, an integral garage and an established rear garden with lawn, mature planting and patio areas.

A significant feature of the property is the FULL PLANNING PERMISSION already granted under reference 26/00657/FUL for a single storey rear extension, part single/part two storey front extension and loft conversion with rear dormer, together with associated alterations. This provides an exciting opportunity to substantially enlarge and enhance what is already a generously proportioned family home.

With excellent existing accommodation, considerable further potential and the benefit of NO ONWARD CHAIN, an internal viewing is highly recommended.
