Property description & features

GUIDE PRICE £600,000 - £625,000. A magnificent apartment located within this most EXCLUSIVE GATED RESIDENCE NESTLED AMONGST PROTECTED WOODLAND... Within the recently converted historic Grade II listed Danbury Palace, this property is located on the first floor and affords triple aspect far reaching views over the grounds, with countryside and Chelmsford beyond. Steeped in history the building has been used for many purposes over the years but has now been sympathetically converted into executive apartments in what can only be described as a truly unique development. Located at the end of a long tree lined drive in landscaped grounds of around eight and a half acres with a tennis court and beautiful gardens. There is also a dedicated concierge service. The development can be found on the outskirts of Chelmsford where there are frequent services to London Liverpool Street. The A12 and Sandon Park & Ride service to Chelmsford city centre are less than a couple of miles away. No onward chain. Energy Rating C.

Location Note - he house is within easy access of local shops, amenities, two Preparatory Schools (Heathcote in Danbury itself and Elm Green in Little Baddow) and two state schools including Danbury Park Primary School (rated Outstanding by Ofsted in 2013). The village is surrounded by a wealth of National Trust woodland, including the historic landscape of Danbury Park (a former medieval deer park). Only six miles due west of Danbury is the city of Chelmsford and its excellent choice of facilities, which include two outstanding Grammar Schools, shopping centre, and a station on the main line into London Liverpool Street. To the east is the market town of Maldon with it's bustling High Street and historic Hythe Quay. The A12 and Sandon Park & Ride service (popular with commuters and shoppers) are just a couple of miles away.

Description - From the gated sweeping driveway which meanders through the grounds, you arrive at the imposing main entrance vestibule and grand hall. The impressive staircase takes you to the first floor and entrance to the apartment. On entering the home you are welcomed by a wide, spacious and impressive reception hallway, bathed in light from the many original mullion windows and having a hardwood floor, ideal to be utilised as an additional reception room, home office etc. From here the home continues with a beautiful high quality fully fitted kitchen breakfast room, as with the entire apartment enjoying wonderful views over Danbury Palace grounds. The property affords direct access to Danbury Country Park & Lakes.

The hallway continues to the sitting room, being of excellent proportions, which enjoys views across the front of the building from this prime elevated aspect. This splendid home offers two good size bedrooms with the master being exceptionally spacious and offering both an impressive vaulted ceiling and original fireplace, as well as a high quality elegantly tiled en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is again of a good size and could be a convenient home office if desired. The family bathroom offers the same high quality sanitary ware. To the exterior there is truly no comparable location. The grounds wrap around the home and offer large landscaped swathes of lawn areas and parkland which can be enjoyed by residents and visitors. There is an on-site concierge service and communal tennis court. The apartment has two allocated parking spaces and a visitors parking area. Each apartment also has ample storage allocated in the basement. This is truly a property and location that cannot be appreciated online.
