Summary - 14, Wheelwright Place, Mile End CO4 5ZF
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact, low-maintenance home ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Modern two-bedroom second-floor apartment, built 2003–2006
Bright and practical, this two-bedroom second-floor flat occupies 593 sqft within a modern Mile End development built 2003–2006. The open-plan living area and integrated kitchen make efficient use of space, while double glazing and electric storage heaters keep running costs predictable. Residents benefit from an allocated off-street parking space and well-kept communal gardens.
The apartment is suited to first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a low-maintenance property in Colchester with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The layout includes a roomy master bedroom and a versatile second room suitable as a home office or guest bedroom. Communal areas are generally well maintained and the site presents a tidy, modern appearance.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with approximately 107 years remaining. Ground rent is £250 per annum and the service charge is £145 per month. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating, which may affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The overall footprint is compact, so buyers seeking generous space should note the modest size.
This apartment offers straightforward entry into the local market or a rental opportunity close to schools, shops and transport links. Viewings are recommended to judge space and layout in person, particularly where ceiling height is lower in parts of the kitchen area.
