4 Bedroom detached house ● Watchouse Road, Galleywood, Chelmsford ● £1,150,000
A stylish four bedroom property with striking open spaces sitting on a plot approaching 0.4 acres that backs on to, with views across, tranquil open green space and only three miles to Chelmsford city centre.
A detached modern four bedroom home set on a plot approaching 0.4 acres that backs on to protected equestrian land. Having undergone a recent substantial renovation this family home offers an incredible open space with a cavernous sitting room / dining room that adjoins a stylish family garden room currently set up as an entertainment music room and bar.
There is a convenient coat storage room off the rear entrance with well-designed bespoke storage cabinets interspersed throughout the ground floor accommodation. The German manufactured kitchen is sleek in design with fully integrated appliances and a practical duel sided breakfast bar. There is also a further separate utility and ground floor WC.
The first floor accommodation houses four double bedrooms, a family bathroom and laundry room and study. The principle suite includes a shower room en-suite and dressing room with the recently extended second third bedrooms designed with vaulted ceilings and the potential to create a balcony over the family room overlooking the fields beyond.
Outside, the property is accessed via a shingle driveway that sweeps around to the side of the house and to the front door. The house sits centrally in a generous plot that is approximately 0.4 acres with gardens to both sides of the property. A contemporary paved sun terrace abuts the rear with access via doors from the sitting room and the garden room. A perfect space for outdoor entertaining that backs on to tranquil green fields.
The garden to the right of the property measures approximately 0.1 of an acre. The natural split of the land could potentially see a development opportunity subject to the necessary planning permissions for use as a separate plot or as a location with which to build a garage or carport. The driveway could then be diverted to this side of the property allowing for the larger garden to be utilized in full as lawn.

Without a doubt there are two large driving forces for people moving to the area. The excellent range of private and state schools. The grammar schools annually top the league tables across the country. The range of private schools offer a more tailored education and are exceptionally well sought after. The second, being value for money, although, as the town grows, house prices within the area look to rise steadily within the coming years.
