This well-presented one-bedroom second-floor apartment in Chancellor Park offers a bright, practical home for first-time buyers or downsizers seeking affordable access to Chelmsford. The open triple-aspect kitchen/lounge/diner brings good natural light, while a spacious double bedroom and well-appointed bathroom complete the internal layout. The property sits within well-maintained communal grounds and includes one allocated off-street parking space.
The home is offered as 75% shared ownership with no additional rent payable on the retained share, making upfront costs lower than full ownership. Ground rent is modest (£52) and service charges are described as affordable; the lease has about 101 years remaining. Construction dates from the early 1990s, with existing mains gas central heating and double glazing installed before 2002.
Location is a key strength: short distance to Chelmsford city centre and the mainline railway station with fast services to London, local retail parks, pubs and riverside walks nearby. Low local crime, very affluent area classification and good broadband and mobile signal support comfortable everyday living.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold, shared-ownership property — the 75% share limits full ownership unless a larger share is purchased later. Service charge amounts are not specified here; prospective purchasers should check current figures and confirm any planned major works. The flat is average-sized (around 546 sq ft) and was built c.1991–1995, so buyers should expect period-appropriate fixtures and may wish to update finishes over time.
