About This Property

This semi-detached bungalow is located in CHELMSFORD, CM2 7SB. The property offers 167m² (1798 sq ft) of spacious living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. With an EPC rating of B (83/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes.
