Summary - Prykes Drive, Chelmsford CM1 1TP
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free 3-bed semi with driveway, garden and strong commuter links.
Chain-free three-bedroom 1930s semi with generous 1,336 sq ft footprint
This spacious three-bedroom 1930s semi offers generous living space across two floors and is offered chain-free, ideal for families seeking central Chelmsford convenience. The property features two reception rooms, a dual-aspect galley kitchen and a low-maintenance rear garden — practical for busy households and easy outdoor upkeep. A block-paved driveway provides ample off-street parking and there is scope for a garage or further improvement to the frontage.
Located in a quiet cul-de-sac within walking distance of Chelmsford city centre, parks and mainline rail links, the home is well placed for schools — including two highly rated grammar schools — and daily amenities. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make it suitable for homework or remote working. The plot is a decent size and the overall footprint is large at around 1,336 sq ft, offering flexible room arrangements and storage.
The house does require modernisation throughout, presenting a clear opportunity to personalise the interior and add value. There is one family bathroom and the third bedroom currently includes a fitted shower cubicle, which may suit some buyers but could need reconfiguration. Buyers should note a medium flood risk in the area and above-average local crime rates; these are material considerations for insurance and security decisions.
In short, this chain-free semi is a sizable city-centre family home with strong commuter links and renovation potential. It will suit buyers looking to update a character property to their own specification or investors seeking a well-located refurbishment project.
