Reservoir House presents a rare and compelling opportunity to acquire a detached 1930s home set on a generous private plot, with approved planning offering exceptional scope to create a truly substantial residence. Whether choosing to renovate and extend the existing property into a large five-bedroom home (subject to underpinning), or to proceed with the approved demolition and construction of an impressive seven-bedroom detached dwelling, the potential here is outstanding. Offered with no onward chain, this is an exciting chance to design and build a bespoke home tailored entirely to your vision.
Despite its private setting and substantial plot, the property is within walking distance of Danbury Village Centre, providing everyday amenities and local conveniences. Heathcote and Elm Green private schools are also within walking distance, making the location particularly attractive for families, while Chelmsford’s highly regarded grammar schools are within easy reach. The surrounding area is known for its attractive countryside, village charm and convenient access to Chelmsford city centre and mainline rail links.
The existing accommodation comprises a welcoming reception hall with stairs rising to the first floor. There are two reception rooms, offering flexible living and dining space, alongside a kitchen, cloakroom and a practical ground floor wet room/utility room. To the first floor are three bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC facilities. The house retains attractive 1930s character, including mock Tudor timbering to the exterior, and now offers clear scope for enhancement or complete transformation in line with the approved plans.
Externally, the property is approached via a private gated driveway leading to an attached garage, providing ample parking and storage. The gardens lie predominantly to the south and east of the house, mainly laid to lawn and partly enclosed by timber fencing, creating a private and versatile outdoor space. The plot extends to approximately 0.23 of an acre subject to land survey. The excellent school catchment and proximity to village amenities further enhance the long-term appeal of this exceptional opportunity.
Offered exclusively off market through Walkers of Danbury, Reservoir House presents a rare and discreet opportunity to secure a prime village plot with exceptional potential.
