Gated side access leads to the rear garden which is predominantly laid to lawn with an alfresco dining terrace situated in front of the dining room. There is a built-in storage room/workshop and the remainder of the garden currently houses a children's climbing frame set on AstroTurf.
Where? The property is accessed from London Road which is an arterial road linking Chelmsford and the A12. There is a bus stop not too far from the entrance of the property offering a frequent service into Chelmsford and surrounding districts including Ingatestone and Brentwood train station.
