There’s something exciting about a home that hasn’t already been finished for you, particularly when it offers the space and character to really make it your own.

Situated along Rainsford Road, this three-bedroom period property is in need of modernisation, but for the right buyer that is very much part of the appeal. With generous proportions, flexible living space and plenty of potential, it provides a great starting point for someone looking to create a home around their own style and way of living.

Step inside and a traditional hallway leads through to a spacious lounge, with a separate second reception room offering plenty of flexibility. It could become a dedicated dining room, a cosy family room, a home office or simply additional everyday living space.

To the rear is the kitchen, along with a ground-floor bathroom and lean-to which provides access out to the garden. The existing layout offers scope for a new owner to rethink and modernise the space over time, creating something that works for them, subject to any necessary consents.

Upstairs, the feeling of space continues with three generously proportioned bedrooms, ideal for a growing family, those needing space to work from home, or simply anyone who appreciates having proper-sized rooms.

And then there’s the lifestyle. Rainsford Road puts you within convenient reach of Chelmsford city centre, giving you easy access to shops, restaurants, cafés and leisure facilities, while Chelmsford railway station makes it a particularly practical location for commuters.

There is no off-street parking with the property, but for buyers prioritising space, location and the opportunity to put their own stamp on a period home, there is plenty here to get excited about.

This isn’t a home for someone looking for something already finished, it’s an opportunity for someone who can see what it could become.
