The property comprises a Grade II listed standalone building of brick construction beneath a pitched tiled roof.

The property has most recently been occupied as a bar and restaurant which is currently configured to provide a large bar and seating area, together with ancillary WCs, storage areas and large kitchen on the ground floor. The ground floor provides two separate staircases leading to the mezzanine floor, which provides an additional bar and wrap-around seating. Externally, the property provides outside seating to the front, whilst there is also a glass extension to the side elevation providing further seating at ground floor level. Please refer to the floor plans and virtual tour for further information.
LOCATION
Chelmsford is a principal commercial and administrative centre located approximately 30 miles north-east of London. It has a large and well established business community comprising companies within the banking, finance and business service sector as well as Government departments. Major occupiers within the City include Aon, Lloyds Bank, The M&G Group, The Amlin Group, Grant Thornton, Royal Sun Alliance and Essex County Council. The City benefits from being just 35 minutes from London Liverpool Street Station and 50 minutes to Kings Cross by way of an excellent mainline service with regular trains from Chelmsford Station, which is the busiest in the east of England handling over 7 million passengers a year and is located approximately 50 yards from the building. The City is equally well located to allow easy access to the M25, London Stansted and City airport.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
