4 bed detached house for sale

Woodham Ferrers, Chelmsford CM3

This beautifully renovated and substantially extended four-bedroom family home occupies a quarter-acre plot approximately, in the highly desirable village of Woodham Ferrers. Thoughtfully improved by the current owners over recent years, including a significant extension completed approximately eight years ago, the property offers an exceptional blend of contemporary living, high-quality finishes and impressive energy efficiency.

Set well back from the road, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy and benefits from extensive off-road parking for approximately four vehicles via an attractive granite shingle driveway.

The spacious and versatile ground floor accommodation has been designed with modern family life in mind and includes a generous dining room, utility room and ground floor shower room/WC. At the heart of the home is the stunning L-shaped kitchen, installed in August 2018 by Howdens and finished with quartz worktops and a range of integrated Siemens appliances, including quality ovens together with air conditioning. French doors provide direct access to the rear garden and create an effortless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

The impressive lounge provides an outstanding entertaining space, complete with a feature log burner and bi-fold doors opening onto the beautifully landscaped rear garden. Additional touches throughout the ground floor include feature understairs lighting and stylish wall lighting to both the front and rear elevations.

A striking feature staircase, installed in July 2023 by Abbott-Wade and benefitting from the remainder of a 10-year guarantee, leads to the first floor accommodation. Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which feature attractive vaulted ceilings that enhance the sense of space and character. The principal bedroom is a particular highlight, also offering air conditioning, a vaulted ceiling and a stylish en-suite shower room.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a detached garage, log store and an exceptional outdoor office installed in April 2026 by Dunster House, complete with air conditioning, power and lighting, making it ideal for home working or as a studio space.

The mature rear garden has been meticulously landscaped to create a private and tranquil retreat, featuring a large porcelain patio, additional decking area and a substantial built-in fire pit. An undercover barbecue shelter with lighting and a dedicated outdoor dining area further enhance the entertaining potential of this superb outdoor space.

The home has also benefited from significant investment in energy efficiency with the installation of an air source heat pump system in February 2024, including a 250-litre hot water cylinder, supplied and installed by Olive Air Ltd with parts warranty remaining until February 2029. Additional benefits include double-glazed windows and doors throughout, contributing to lower running costs and improved environmental credentials.
