Summary - 171 AVON ROAD CHELMSFORD CM1 2LA
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Practical family home with garden, parking and strong local schools.
Three bedrooms with two reception rooms for flexible family living
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Avon Road is a practical family starter with direct access to the park and allotments. The layout includes two reception rooms, a private rear garden and off-street parking, offering straightforward everyday living and outdoor space for children or pets. The property is freehold, around 1,032 sq ft, and currently has an EPC band C.
The house benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and a handy brick outbuilding with power and drainage for storage or a workshop. Nearby schools range from good-rated primaries to selective secondaries, and local bus links and shops are within easy reach—making the location useful for families and first-time buyers.
Buyers should note the property shows some dated features and cosmetic wear consistent with its mid-20th-century construction. External photos indicate maintenance needs to the garden and elevations, and internal descriptions mention damp patches; a survey is recommended to check any repair scope. The property appears to be system-built with no wall insulation (assumed), and the double glazing was installed before 2002, so energy-efficiency improvements may be worth budgeting for.
Overall this is a well-located, practical home with scope to modernise and add value. It will suit buyers seeking outdoor space and park access who are comfortable planning modest repairs or upgrades to personalise the house and improve efficiency.
