5 bedroom detached house

Paul Mason Associates are privileged to be the sole agent for this magnificent detached property which we believe dates back to the Edwardian era. The property is situated in a highly coveted location within walking distance of the City Centre and approx 1 mile from the train station.
The property has been sympathetically extended and improved in more recent years, offering substantial and versatile accommodation throughout, ideal for the growing family or for entertaining.
Chelmsford is a thriving and extremely sought after City, with a vast array of restaurants, bars and a comprehensive range of shops and leisure facilities. There are two outstanding grammar schools, New Hall boarding day school and many more reputable independent schools, all within easy access. Chelmsford boasts superb transport links, with the station on the main line route to London Liverpool Street with a journey time of 35 minutes.
The spacious and well presented accommodation is set over three floors and in summary boasts five double bedrooms, four bathrooms plus a ground floor cloakroom, a multitude of reception rooms with the potential to include a self contained annexe and a stunning 28'6 x 18'3 Plain English kitchen/breakfast room overlooking the beautifully maintained gardens. The ground floor is largely fitted with solid oak floorboards with high skirting boards.
The property is set on a secluded south/east facing plot of approximately a quarter of an acre, being set well back from the road with parking for a large number of cars along with a large double garage.
The property also has the benefit of being offered for sale with no onward chain.
