4 bed detached house for sale

Henniker Gate, Chelmer Village, Chelmsford CM2

Set on the ever-popular Henniker Gate in Chelmer Village, this exceptional four-bedroom detached home delivers high-spec finishes, thoughtful upgrades and serious family space - all in one of Chelmsford’s most convenient locations.

Perfectly positioned close to the A12, Chelmer Village Retail Park, Asda (for those “quick” trips that are never quick), Barnes Farm School and the upcoming Beaulieu Park Station, this home balances lifestyle and practicality effortlessly.

Pull onto the generous driveway offering ample off-street parking, complete with an electric garage door - because pressing a button will always feel better than lifting one manually. The composite front door sets the tone: Modern, secure and stylish.

Step inside and the layout immediately impresses. To the left sits a versatile reception room, currently used as a playroom but equally ideal as a snug, formal dining room or second lounge - flexible space for modern family living.

Continue through and you’ll find a dedicated office/study with fitted desks, creating a true work-from-home solution that keeps productivity separate from everyday living.

And then... The heart of the home.

The 2019 extension has transformed the property into a stunning open-plan kitchen and lounge space finished to an exceptional specification. A bespoke central island with quartz worktops takes centre stage, complemented by integrated double oven, microwave and dishwasher - all seamlessly built in for a clean, contemporary finish.

Underfloor heating runs through the kitchen and hallway, while skylights flood the space with natural light. Open the bifold doors and the garden becomes an effortless extension of the living space - ideal for entertaining, summer evenings or simply enjoying that indoor-outdoor flow.

The separate living room continues the wow factor with a sleek media wall and a second set of bifold doors, enhancing both light and versatility.

Practical touches have been carefully considered throughout, including a separate utility room, a downstairs WC with ample storage, bespoke understairs storage (because clever storage is underrated), new radiators throughout, new windows, an anti-fungal treated roof and a fully boarded loft providing excellent additional storage.

Upstairs offers three generous double bedrooms and a well-proportioned single. The principal bedroom benefits from its own modern en-suite, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom.

This is a home that has been intelligently extended, beautifully upgraded and meticulously maintained - perfect for families looking for space, style and long-term comfort in a prime Chelmer Village setting.
