Set on a deep, private plot in a sought-after Marshalls Road location, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers generous living throughout and excellent privacy. The ground floor features a very large open-plan family room, separate living room and a sizeable kitchen/diner with patio access to an un‑overlooked south-facing garden. A utility/office room and cloakroom add practical flexibility for family life.
Upstairs there are five bedrooms, three with en-suite facilities, plus a separate shower room — ideal for busy households or multi-generational living. The property sits on a large plot with block‑paved driveway parking for multiple cars and an attached single garage. Its proximity to Braintree town centre and the station is a real convenience for commuters.
Constructed in the mid‑20th century, the house presents scope for modernisation and reconfiguration to suit contemporary family needs — described as having “huge potential.” Buyers should note the property will benefit from updating in places to fully realise that potential. Council tax is above average, and several nearby schools have mixed Ofsted outcomes, which may matter to purchasers prioritising school performance.
Chain free and offered with a private, leafy rear outlook, this home is best suited to families seeking spacious accommodation with scope to add value through refurbishment or extension (subject to planning). Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the plot, layout and convenience to local amenities and transport links.
