We are delighted to offer for sale this beautifully extended four bedroom family home, ideally situated in the popular village of Writtle. The property has been thoughtfully extended to both the front and rear, together with a loft conversion, creating versatile and well proportioned accommodation across three floors.
Upon entering, the porch leads into a welcoming entrance hall, with doors providing access to the principal ground-floor rooms. The impressive lounge measures over 22ft in length and benefits from a bow window to the front, together with a Velux window which floods the room with natural light.
The kitchen has been extended to create a generous dining area and features a large central island, providing an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining. Finished in a modern style throughout, the kitchen enjoys direct access onto the rear garden, as well as access to a useful ground-floor cloakroom.
Moving upstairs to the first floor, there are three bedrooms, comprising two doubles and a further single room. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, while the third bedroom is currently being used as a home office. A modern family bathroom completes this floor.
The second floor has been created as part of the loft conversion and provides a further bedroom, featuring a Velux window to the rear and useful eaves storage.
Externally, the current owners have thoughtfully landscaped the rear garden, creating a mature, established and more secluded outdoor space. The garden also provides access to the garage, which has been converted by the current owners into a dedicated home gym, adding further versatility to this already spacious family home.
Located within the village of Writtle where, you'll find a lovely mix of traditional pubs, places to eat, local shops and a village school, giving the area a wonderfully convenient and community-focused feel. When a little more is needed, Chelmsford is within easy reach by car, offering an excellent choice of shopping, schools, restaurants and leisure facilities. The city also provides a mainline railway station with direct services to London Liverpool Street, making the location equally well suited to those who enjoy village life but need easy access to the capital.
