Baddow Road, Chelmsford

A rare opportunity to purchase a substantial five-bedroom detached family home, lovingly built and cherished by the same family for three generations. Offered with NO ONWARD CHAIN, this wonderful property is now ready for its next chapter, presenting an exciting opportunity for a new family to put down roots, create lasting memories and make it their forever home.

Built brick by brick in the late 1960s this much-loved home has been the setting for over five decades of family life. Set well back from the road, the property enjoys a private position, approached via a generous driveway and surrounded by mature trees and established planting.

Inside, the spacious and versatile accommodation includes a bright and welcoming living room, separate dining room, kitchen with adjoining utility room and a convenient ground-floor WC. Much of the ground floor also benefits from original parquet flooring concealed beneath the carpets, offering the opportunity to restore a charming feature.

Upstairs, five generously sized bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for growing families, alongside a family bathroom to include a spacious walk-in shower, plus a fully boarded loft for further potential.

The established rear garden is a particular highlight, having been lovingly maintained over many years. With mature planting, a greenhouse, former vegetable-growing area and generous outdoor space, it provides a wonderful setting for children to play, family gatherings and summer entertaining.

To the front, the property benefits from a generous plot offering fantastic potential to create a substantial driveway with ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, subject to any necessary consents. This presents an exciting opportunity for buyers to enhance both the practicality and kerb appeal of the property. A single garage with an electric roller door, accessible from both the driveway and rear garden, adds further convenience.

While the property would benefit from modernisation, it offers fantastic potential to create a truly exceptional family home. Its generous proportions, character and established gardens provide the perfect foundations for buyers wishing to put their own stamp on a property and enjoy it for generations to come.
