Rossdene Gardens, Leaden Roding, Great Dunmow, Essex CM6

A detached family home set on a generous corner plot, with a double garage, offered for sale with no onward chain

Description
Rossdene is a four bedroom detached family home situated within the attractive and accessible village of Leaden Roding. Occupying a prominent corner plot, the property is understood to have been built by the original developer as his own home, which is reflected in its well-balanced accommodation and generous garden.

Constructed in 1984, the house enjoys an attractive outlook to the front and to the rear of the plot sits a detached double garage, with an additional area of garden extending beyond. In 2021, planning permission was granted under application utt/21/1532/hhf for the conversion of the garage into a self contained annexe, incorporating a ground floor living and a first floor bedroom. Although this consent has since lapsed, the proposal could be revisited, subject to the usual approvals.

The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.
The property is arranged over two floors and extends to approximately 156 sq m (1,68sq ft), together with a detached garage of approximately 29sq m (313sq ft).

The ground floor is entered via a lobby and entrance hall, which provides access to the principal reception rooms and a staircase to the first floor. The accommodation on this level comprises a lounge, a dining room, a study, a kitchen/breakfast room and a utility room, together with a WC and lobby area.

On the first floor, the landing provides access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room. Bedrooms one and two enjoy southerly views.

Outside
The property enjoys a front garden with a small retaining brick wall, mature planting and an area of lawn with a pathway leading to the front door. The rear garden has been attractively landscaped and is well stocked with a variety of shrubs, together with an established copper beech tree. There is mature privacy hedging, a small patio area and a timber shed. Midway along the plot is a driveway providing parking for several vehicles and giving access to a detached brick-built double garage. Beyond this is a further area of the garden.
