Main Road, Ford End, Chelmsford, Essex, CM3

Dovecote Barn is a beautifully presented four bedroom detached barn conversion, located within a gated development of just three luxury homes in the village of Ford End. Set on approximately one third of an acre, the property combines striking period features with a modern open-plan layout and outstanding outdoor entertaining space.

The accommodation is light and well proportioned throughout, with vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and solid oak flooring with underfloor heating. The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan lounge/dining room with French doors opening onto the gardens, complemented by a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room with integrated appliances and a separate utility room.

The property offers flexible bedroom accommodation, including a principal bedroom with en-suite, two further bedrooms each with their own en-suite facilities, and a mezzanine level currently used as an additional bedroom or office.

Externally, the gardens are a real highlight, designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A covered bespoke outdoor kitchen with seating area leads to a porcelain patio, raised deck with sunken hot tub, children’s play area and generous lawn beyond.

A particular feature is the detached Grade II listed dovecote, arranged over two floors and currently used as a gym and office. Further benefits include a double bay cart lodge, ample driveway parking, landscaped gardens and recently sanded and re-stained windows and doors.
