Set within an exclusive gated development in the highly regarded village of Purleigh, this substantial five-bedroom detached residence offers approaching 3,000 sq ft of well-balanced accommodation, ideally suited to modern family life and entertaining.

The property presents a strong first impression, with a handsome, symmetrical faÃ§ade and a detached double garage set to one side, framed by neatly maintained front gardens and a generous driveway.

A particularly impressive entrance hall sets the tone for the property, offering a bright and spacious welcome with a real sense of openness. The space is enhanced by a striking staircase with glazed balustrade and natural wood detailing, creating a contemporary focal point, while the generous proportions allow for a smooth flow through to the principal reception areas. Finished with quality flooring and neutral dÃ©cor, the hall provides both a practical and elegant introduction to the home.

To the front of the property, both the dining room and study enjoy attractive bay windows, allowing for excellent natural light and pleasant outlooks over the front gardens. The dining room provides a well-balanced space for more formal entertaining, while the study offers a comfortable and quiet environment for home working, with the flexibility to be used as an additional reception room if required. The bay-fronted design adds a sense of character and proportion to both rooms, enhancing their overall appeal.

Positioned to the rear of the property, the living room is a well-proportioned and comfortable space, enjoying a pleasant outlook over the garden. A set of glazed double doors allows for excellent natural light while providing direct access onto the terrace, creating an easy connection to the outside. The room offers a calm and inviting setting for everyday relaxation, further enhanced by a feature fireplace which adds a subtle focal point.

The standout feature of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen and family space. Designed as a central hub, this room is both practical and sociable, with excellent natural light and bi-fold doors opening directly onto the rear terrace. The layout lends itself equally well to everyday family use and larger gatherings, with a seamless connection to the outside space. A separate utility room sits discreetly off the kitchen, enhancing functionality, and there is also a ground floor cloakroom.

A particularly attractive feature of the home is the galleried landing, which creates a real sense of openness and light. With a part-vaulted ceiling, rooflight windows, and a glazed balustrade, this space feels bright and contemporary, offering more than just a functional link between rooms. Currently arranged as a relaxed seating area, it provides a versatile additional space that could suit a variety of uses, from a quiet reading area to a more informal retreat.

There are five bedrooms upstairs. The principal and guest bedrooms both benefit from en-suite facilities, while a family bathroom serves the remaining rooms. The fifth bedroom is currently arranged as a dressing room, complementing the principal suite, though it could easily be returned to bedroom use if required.

Externally, the rear garden has been attractively landscaped to provide a clean, usable space with a broad terrace running across the back of the houseâ??ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. The garden extends to approximately 102ft in width and enjoys a good degree of privacy, with mature planting and established boundaries. A detached garden room sits to the rear, offering excellent versatility as a home office, gym, or additional entertaining space.

Purleigh is a well-regarded village with a strong community feel, set within attractive Essex countryside. The development itself is positioned opposite New Hall Vineyard, adding to the appeal of the immediate surroundings. Within the village there is a popular primary school, a well-known public house, and a community store catering for day-to-day needs. The market town of Maldon is approximately 4 miles away, while the city of Chelmsford lies around 11 miles distant, offering mainline rail services into London.
