This well-presented three-bedroom semi in Rainsford Lane offers contemporary, low-maintenance living within easy walking distance of Chelmsford city centre and the station. The ground floor’s open-plan kitchen/diner with breakfast bar and French doors provides a bright social hub that opens directly onto a large, secluded rear garden — ideal for family life and entertaining.
The current owners have maintained the property to a high standard: modern fittings, integrated appliances, double glazing and efficient gas central heating create comfortable, move-in-ready accommodation. A double-length driveway provides secure off-street parking for two cars, a valuable convenience in this central location. There is also scope to extend subject to planning permission for buyers looking to add space or value.
Practical points to note: the house is compact overall (approx 698 sq ft) with a single family bathroom, so space is tighter than larger suburban homes. The building is solid brick as originally constructed, with no confirmed wall insulation (assumed), which could mean insulation upgrades are worth considering. The area records above-average crime levels, so prospective buyers should factor local safety and security measures into their decision.
Well-suited to families, first-time buyers or investors seeking a centrally located, low-maintenance property, this home combines modern presentation with genuine potential. Internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the flow, garden and parking, and to judge extension possibilities STP.
