Feature Development – The Heathers, Hatfield Peverel

Developer Stonebond Properties has seen strong interest in The Heathers, its scheme of just seven homes in Hatfield Peverel, a sought-after village just a few miles from Chelmsford.

This collection of seven three- and four-bedroom homes, situated on a gated private road is blessed with excellent transport links in the form of regular rail services from the nearby station (40 minutes to London Liverpool Street) and the A12, which both put London and East Anglia within easy reach.

These homes have been designed with a clever combination of traditional materials with contemporary styling and a specification to appeal to discerning house-hunters, with features such as underfloor heating to the ground floor, low-energy lighting, Shaker-style kitchen cabinets, quality integrated appliances, elegant surfaces and sleek designer sanitaryware.

Hatfield Peverel itself has everything for your daily needs immediately to hand. A newsagent and convenience store are just a short walk away and the village has plenty of other amenities too, such as a supermarket, post office, pubs and eateries, a dentist, health centre and chemist. Young families will appreciate the infant and junior schools (both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted). The nearest secondary school is the modern Maltings Academy, situated just under three miles away in Witham, which recently received an ‘Outstanding’ report from Ofsted. Chelmsford County High School for girls and the King Edward VI (KEGS) Grammar School for boys are among the best of their type in the country.

Within a few minutes’ drive are both Witham and Chelmsford, between them offering an impressive array of places to shop, eat and drink as well as leisure and cultural destinations from sports centres and golf courses to theatres and music venues.

Plot 7 is a four-bedroom detached house which offers 1,532 sq ft of living space. This double-fronted home is at the end of the quiet cul de sac and comes with a single garage and private driveway.

The focal point of this house is its L-shaped open-plan kitchen/dining living room that opens out over much of the ground floor. This double-aspect room has plenty of glazing as well as sliding doors to the back garden. Off the kitchen is a utility room which in turn has a door to the garage. Also on the ground floor are a cloakroom and a separate dining room which could actually be used for a range of purposes.

Upstairs, three of the bedrooms are doubles (with en suite shower room to bedroom one), with bedroom four a single room that could be used as home office or hobby room. The family bathroom has a bath and separate walk-in shower. This house is priced at £640,000.

A visit to the site can be arranged by appointment only. Find out more about The Heathers at www.stonebondproperties.com.
