Chantry Drive, Wormingford

GUIDE PRICE £800,000 to £825,000

LOCATION
A spacious and impressive double gable detached five double bedroom home set in a private cul-de-sac of only six properties in the tranquil village of Wormingford, on the Essex/Suffolk borders and edge of the Stour Valley. With open countryside on your doorstep. The village has a diverse friendly community with a mixture of various family sizes, old and young, with activities for all, a local farm shop, public house, church and an abundance of dog walks, country walks and cycle rides.

Approximately 15 minute drive to Colchester North Station, frequent service and a direct link and, at peak, less than an hour into London Liverpool Street. Alternatively the branch line at Bures, changing at Marks Tey, is 6 minutes away.

This select development was originally built in 2000-2001 and this home illustrates the high quality of that original build. Internal accommodation of approximately 2,303 sq. ft. A wonderful home, that offers flexible living and that you can ‘move straight in’.

This has been a very enjoyable family home for our current vendors for over 15 years and when leaving they will undoubtedly turn back and remember the happy times and celebrations they’ve had. They’ll miss the convenience and contrast of being so close to the open countryside and only a short drive to Sudbury town and Colchester city centres and, the mainline station.

ACCOMMODATION
Accommodation includes five double bedrooms, three bathrooms - Jack and Jill, en-suite to principle bedroom and family bathroom. Three reception rooms – large lounge, family room and study (that has been used as a 6th bedroom), a kitchen/diner with separate utility, double garage and a very generous amount off street parking. The rear garden is not overlooked and backs onto the village playing fields and village hall, providing a high level of privacy.

GROUND FLOOR
A large feature solid wooden door opens to a generous entrance hall. To the far left is the lounge with double doors onto the garden. Directly to the front is the family room or playroom overlooking and with double doors onto the rear garden. In summer months both of these rooms make the most of bringing ‘the outside in’ and allow a cool breeze through the home in those hot summer months. Also off the hall is the study (a large room that is currently used as a bedroom) and downstairs cloak room. To the far right of the front door is the door to the kitchen and dining area. A good size kitchen, with a selection of light wall and base level units with contrasting dark granite worktops, sink and drainer with mixer tap over, electric oven and induction hob, extractor fan, integrated dishwasher. A central island with granite top doubles as a breakfast bar but is perfect for prep and serving snacks and meals throughout the day, with drawers and cupboards beneath.

To the far end of the kitchen opens up to the dining area with space for a 6 or even 8 seater table. There is also a separate utility room with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, sink, granite worktops and useful fitted storage units.
