Location
The property is in the sought after Galleywood area to the south of Chelmsford, offering easy access to the A12. The house is in walking distance to a number of primary schools, local parks and shops with Chelmsford City Centre being around 2.5 miles away.
Overview of accommodation
The home is accessed via a good sized Entrance Hall which has a built in cupboard, and doors to the Dining Room and Kitchen. The Dining Room has French doors opening out to the Rear Garden and sliding doors into the Lounge which has a rear facing window. The Kitchen faces front and has a range of matching wall and base units with worktops over and whilst needs updating, is perfectly clean and tidy to get you going. There is also a door to the side leading out to the drive and garage so you can just bring your shopping in directly to the Kitchen.
On the first floor are the three Bedrooms, Bathroom and Toilet. The extension to the house means that all three Bedrooms are now double rooms, with one of the rooms facing front and the other two facing to the rear. The decor in the bedrooms is dated but nothing that a new carpet and coat of paint wouldn't fix. The Bathroom and Toilet are currently separate, though most people would want to update these rooms and you could 'knock through' whilst doing so.
Outside there is a good sized Rear Garden which is mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by panel fencing. The garden backs onto allotments so it is unlikely that anything will be built behind you.
There is a drive for a couple of cars to the front (you could create more parking on the front garden) and a gate has been put up which leads to the garage which is set back. The garage also has a door into the garden.
Our thoughts
The double storey extension means that this really is a great sized family home in a very good location. It offers the perfect opportunity for someone to make a house their home and is clean and tidy enough to live in whilst you carry out the (primarily cosmetic) work to make it your own.
