3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Skinners Lane, Galleywood, Chelmsford CM2

Location

Situated around 2 miles from Chelmsford City Centre, Galleywood is a highly regarded suburb of the city with a good reputation for a place to raise your family. Primary and secondary schools are within walking distance as are local shops, whilst if you are looking to relax on a weekend then Chelmer Park is just at the end of the road and there is plenty of open countryside as well as Galleywood Common for walks, and if you fancy a change from Chelmsford then pretty village of Stock has some lovely pub/restaurants, with Billericay just beyond. For those travelling further afield, you can pick up the A12 within minutes.

Overview of accommodation

The Porch leads into the Entrance Hall which in turn has the stairs rising to the first floor and doors to the ground floor Shower Room with toilet, Lounge/Dining Room and Kitchen. The Lounge/Dining Room runs the entire length of the house so is dual aspect with windows to front and rear and has a door into the Kitchen. The Kitchen faces rear with windows looking, and a door leading out to the Rear Garden and is fitted with a range of matching wall and base units with spaces for appliances. We have seen similar houses where the Lounge/Dining Room is split into two rooms with the rear section 'knocked through' into the Kitchen to create and open plan space. Buyers should make their own investigations into the cost/amount of work require to do this.

On the first floor, Bedrooms One and Two are both doubles facing front and rear respectively, with the rear room having fitted wardrobes. Bedroom Three is a rear facing single room. The Bathroom faces front and whilst it is very clean and tidy, this will probably be the first room that you will want to update.

Externally, the Rear Garden has been well cared for, with a patio area and then the majority laid to lawn with plant and shrub borders. There is a personal door into the garage, a 9'7 x 7'3 shed/workshop and gated access to the side.

Parking for 3-4 cars is available via a driveway at the side of the house leading to the garage and there is unrestricted on road parking.

Our view? Sure there's lots you could do to the house, but in reality new carpets, bathroom and a general decorate would make the world of difference to this family home. Over time you can then continue to update and extend/go into the loft (stpp) if needed.
