6 bed detached house for sale

Elizabeth Lockhart Way, Braintree CM7

Occupying a prominent position on Elizabeth Lockhart Way, this substantial detached home provides approximately 3,184 sq ft of highly versatile accommodation arranged over three floors. With six bedrooms, an excellent selection of reception rooms, multiple bath/shower rooms, a garage, car port and enclosed rear garden, the property offers an impressive amount of space for a growing or multi-generational family.

The Property

This is an imposing red-brick detached home with characterful gabled elevations, tall chimneys and attractive grey-painted windows. Internally, the accommodation is notably generous and extends to approximately 295.8 sq m (3,184.1 sq ft) across three floors.

The ground floor is entered via a central entrance hall and offers an excellent degree of flexibility. To the front is a separate dining room featuring a distinctive bay window, while the principal sitting room provides another substantial reception space.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of contemporary light-coloured units, extensive work surfaces and integrated cooking appliances. It opens into a particularly useful family/breakfast room, with doors providing direct access to the rear garden. A separate utility room adds further practicality.

A further play room sits beyond the main sitting room, making this part of the house particularly adaptable for family life. Depending on individual requirements, the various reception areas could equally lend themselves to use as home offices, children's rooms, hobby spaces or additional informal living areas.

The first floor provides four bedrooms. The largest measures approximately 21'8" x 12'5" and benefits from its own en-suite shower room. A second particularly generous bedroom also has an en-suite. Two further bedrooms and the family bathroom complete this floor. The bedrooms enjoy plenty of natural light, with a mixture of traditional windows and rooflights complementing the character of the upper accommodation.

The second floor provides two further bedrooms, both of good proportions, together with an additional bathroom. Built-in storage is incorporated into the rooms, while the rooflights and interesting ceiling lines create bright and characterful spaces. This upper floor could work especially well for older children, guests or those wanting a degree of separation for working from home.

The Outside

The property occupies a prominent corner position and is approached from Elizabeth Lockhart Way, with its red-brick elevations, pitched tiled roof and substantial chimneys giving the house an attractive traditional appearance.

To the side of the property are a car port and separate garage, providing useful off-road parking and storage.

To the rear is a sizeable enclosed garden bordered by a combination of brick walling and timber fencing. Doors from both the family/breakfast room and adjoining accommodation provide convenient access outside.

The garden is currently relatively undeveloped and would benefit from landscaping, presenting an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to create an outside space to their own specification, whether incorporating lawn, planting, entertaining areas or children's play space.

The Area

Elizabeth Lockhart Way is situated in the popular Essex town of Braintree, placing the property within reach of the town's wide range of everyday amenities, shops, schools and leisure facilities.

For commuters, Braintree railway station provides services towards London Liverpool Street, while the area's road network gives access towards Chelmsford, Colchester and surrounding towns and villages.

The location therefore combines the convenience of established town amenities with the space and versatility required for modern family living.
