Well presented two-bedroom ground floor apartment in Moulsham Lodge, a short walk from Chelmsford city centre and mainline station. The living/dining space feels open and bright, and both bedrooms are a comfortable size for a first home or buy-to-let. The flat includes one allocated parking space and resident visitor bays, plus modern double glazing and gas central heating.
The property is leasehold with approximately 125 years remaining. Annual service charge is around £1,600 and ground rent is £125 per year; buyers should allow for additional fees such as leasehold packs and legal costs. Appliances and services have not been independently tested, so a buyer survey is recommended.
Location is a strong selling point: excellent broadband and mobile signal, low local crime, and easy access to shops, gyms and highly regarded schools. Travel to London Liverpool Street is straightforward and the A12/A414 are nearby, making this a practical choice for commuters. The apartment is suited to first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance starter home or investors looking for reliable rental demand.
The building and communal areas are modern and well kept, but the flat is average-sized so buyers wanting larger living space should view with that in mind. There are no known flood risks, and the immediate neighbourhood is very affluent, which supports long-term value retention.
