Dating back to 1902, Goddards is a recently renovated and restored Edwardian residence located on the peripherals of Chelmsford’s city centre. Arranged over three floors this spacious period property retains many of its original features including open fireplaces, high ceilings, replacement sash windows and ornate cornicing. The overall presentation is sympathetic to the period, with subtle colours schemes portraying true elegance as you move through the house.

The grand reception hall offers access to the four principal reception rooms, which are flooded with natural light from the glazed sash windows. The ground floor also incorporates the kitchen, utility/workshop and ground floor shower room. The conservatory lends itself to entertaining and provides wonderful views over the landscaped gardens. Planning was approved May 3rd 2019 Ref. No:19/00784/FUL for conversion of the conservatory to a habitable room.

The first floor landing allows access to the principal bedroom suite with en-suite dressing room and bathroom, four further bedrooms and family bathroom. An additional staircase allows access to the second floor room, which would make an ideal hobby room or home office.
