This substantial double-fronted detached family home in Chigwell offers generous living across approximately 3,800 sq ft. The layout includes seven bedrooms, five bathrooms, three reception rooms, a main modern kitchen plus an additional cook’s kitchen, and a bright loft conversion with two bedrooms and a bathroom that contains a sauna and steam room — ideal for a large or multi-generational household.
The house sits on a large landscaped plot with a full-width patio, garage and off-street parking for multiple cars. Natural light and garden views feature strongly from several reception rooms and the contemporary kitchen. Local amenities are convenient — good-rated primary and secondary schools, regular bus links and low local crime — and the area benefits from very fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Practical points to note: the property was originally built between 1967–1975 and has been extended by the current owners. Some building elements reflect that era: cavity walls were built without insulation (assumed) and the double glazing install date is unknown. Council tax is described as quite expensive. These are factual considerations for buyers planning long-term running costs or further upgrading/insulating works.
Overall this home will suit families seeking generous, flexible accommodation in a very affluent part of Chigwell, with scope for cosmetic updating or energy-efficiency improvements to tailor the house to a buyer’s exacting standards.
