5 bedroom barn conversion for sale

A deceptively spacious semi detached 2500 sq ft barn style residence nestled along a quiet country lane with undulating views over countryside.

What We Say at The Zoe Napier Group

This really is a tardis of epic proportions, from the moment we stepped through the front door of this opulent home we were blown away by how much accommodation is on offer! The configuration is perfect for multi-generational living, whilst the already short commute to Chelmsford railway station will become significantly less once the new Beaulieu Park station is constructed and consequently will appeal to discerning commuters that require excellent access into London.

What the Owners Say

We have loved the peace and tranquillity that living in this tucked away, idyllic location offers and it truly feels like you are in the middle of the country and yet you are only a short drive away from so many amenities.  There really is a wonderful community spirit along the lane and we will dearly miss our neighbours but the property is simply too big for us now, so we have made the tough decision to downsize.
