Details

Set along the highly sought-after Maltese Road in Chelmsford, this charming detached thatched residence dates back to the 1800s and effortlessly blends historic character with comfortable modern living.

Ideally positioned within easy walking distance of Chelmsford city centre and mainline train station, the property offers both convenience and a wonderful sense of seclusion.

Occupying a generous plot, the home benefits from ample off-road parking for several vehicles, while to the rear lies a beautifully maintained garden. Predominantly laid to lawn and framed by well-stocked flower and shrub borders, it provides a stunning outdoor space perfect for relaxing or entertaining.

Internally, the property is rich in period features, including exposed beams, vaulted ceilings, and charming architectural details throughout.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming lobby entered via an oak doorway, offering space for coats and shoes and leading through to the dining room. The dining room is full of character, featuring a glazed bay window, exposed beams, wooden flooring, and a vaulted ceiling, and flows seamlessly into the impressive lounge.

The vaulted lounge is a truly standout space, enjoying views over the rear garden and boasting a feature fireplace with inset log burner, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The kitchen is well-appointed with a range of fitted units, complemented by quality work surfaces and a central island, and enjoys both front and rear aspects, allowing for plenty of natural light.

A cellar adds further versatility to the home and is complemented by a separate wine storage area, ideal for enthusiasts.

An inner hall provides access to the rear garden via an original oak door and leads to the bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom is a generous and characterful room with a vaulted ceiling and retained plumbing for a potential en-suite. A second bedroom, accessed via a distinctive curved doorway, benefits from its own en-suite, while a third bedroom and a well-appointed family bathroom complete the internal layout.

Further enhancing the property is an integral garage, complete with power and lighting. In addition to its practical use for storage or parking, this space offers excellent potential for conversion or further development, subject to the necessary permissions.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a detached home office, offering a highly versatile space that could equally serve as a garden room, studio, or annexe, depending on requirements.

The wrap-around garden enhances the sense of privacy and space, with a variety of seating areas, mature planting, and specimen trees creating a picturesque and tranquil setting.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a unique period home in a prime Chelmsford location, combining character, space, and future potential in equal measures.
