8 bedroom detached house for sale

Prominent Georgian residence located two miles from Chelmsford city centre.

Property Overview
The Old Vicarage holds a Grade II listing due to its architectural and historical significance. An excerpt from the listing describes it as a noteworthy early 18th-century red brick house with distinct features such as a parapet on all sides, elegantly arched corners, and a finely crafted brick cornice. With two principal storeys, an attic level, and cellars, this residence has remained under the same ownership for 37 years, having been acquired from the Church in 1986. The property boasts generously sized rooms with tall ceilings, providing ample and versatile living space. It comprises four spacious reception rooms, including a substantial reception area adjoining the utility space at the back of the house. This portion could be developed into an independent annexe, featuring an external entrance (subject to obtaining the necessary planning approvals).

Layout
Upon entering the vestibule, you're welcomed into a grand hallway that spans the entire depth of the house. This hallway grants access to three expansive reception rooms and the kitchen/breakfast room located at the rear, overlooking the gardens. Connected to the kitchen is a sizeable utility room, a bathroom, and a rear reception space, which has the potential to function as a self-contained annexe. The first floor accommodates four generous bedrooms, three of which have en-suite facilities. Stairs lead to the second floor, where four additional bedrooms and a shower room are situated.
