About
Guide Price £375,000 - £385,000 If you’re looking for a home with space to settle into now and the potential to grow with you in the future, this three-bedroom semi-detached home could be just what you’ve been waiting for – and with no onward chain, your move could be that little bit simpler too.
Sitting on a generous corner plot within easy reach of Chelmsford city centre and the mainline railway station, the property offers a great balance of comfortable living space, a good-sized garden and plenty of future potential, making it an ideal choice for first-time buyers and young families alike.
Step inside and you’ll find two separate reception rooms, giving you flexibility for everyday life.
The dining room provides a dedicated space for family meals and entertaining, while the lounge is a comfortable place to switch off and relax at the end of the day.
Leading directly from the lounge is the conservatory, adding another useful living space and creating a lovely connection with the garden.
It could work equally well as a playroom, home office, reading spot or simply somewhere to sit and enjoy the garden throughout the year.
The kitchen is positioned separately to the rear of the home and provides a practical space for day-to-day living.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms together with the family bathroom, creating a straightforward and practical layout for family life. Outside is where this home really starts to stand out.
The corner plot gives you that little bit of extra space around the property, with a private enclosed rear garden providing plenty of room for children to play, summer barbecues, entertaining friends or simply enjoying some time outside.
The size and position of the plot may also offer exciting potential to extend the existing home in the future, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
For buyers thinking longer term, it provides the opportunity to create additional living space as their family or needs grow.
There is also a gated entrance leading to off-road parking and a garage, providing useful additional parking and storage.
The boiler was replaced in February 2025, giving buyers one less thing to think about when moving in.
With no onward chain and Chelmsford city centre, its shops, restaurants and leisure facilities all within easy reach, alongside the mainline station for commuters, this is a home that offers plenty for today while giving its next owners the opportunity to put their own stamp on it for the future.
