Summary - OAKWOOD COTTAGE SLOUGH ROAD DANBURY CHELMSFORD CM3 4LX
3 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Modernised three-bedroom bungalow on 0.6 acres with garage and woodland privacy.
Set in approx. 0.6 acres (subject to land survey)
Set within about 0.6 acres (subject to survey), Oakwood Cottage is an extended, single-storey retreat on a quiet country lane near Danbury. The bungalow has been modernised with a striking kitchen/breakfast room, a generous family room with two sets of bi-fold doors and a wood-burning stove, and an insulated outbuilding suitable for home office or studio use. Mature gardens and adjoining woodland provide significant privacy and scope for outdoor enjoyment.
Practical strengths include a large double garage, extensive driveway with electric gates, double glazing, and an upgraded shower room. The property’s layout—three well-proportioned bedrooms and an open-plan living/family arrangement—suits downsizers seeking single-floor living or buyers wanting a low-rise home in a semi-rural setting.
Notable considerations: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators and the EPC is rated D. The house dates from the 1930s–40s with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and there is no recent confirmation of roof condition; further inspection and a land survey are recommended. There is a single re-fitted shower room only, which may be limiting for some buyers.
Overall this is a rare semi-rural bungalow offering space, privacy and modernised living on a large plot. It suits purchasers prioritising gardens and woodland, those looking to downsize to single-storey accommodation, or buyers seeking a private home with potential to tailor finishes and energy performance over time.
