A compact two-bedroom terraced townhouse set directly on the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation, offering a waterside aspect without extensive outdoor upkeep. The property sits in a quiet cul-de-sac with allocated off-street parking and visitor spaces, making day-to-day life convenient for commuters or first-time buyers.
Inside, the layout is practical: an open-plan living/dining room with glazed doors, a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, cloakroom, two double bedrooms and a first-floor shower room. The home benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and modern construction (c.2003–2006), so it will suit buyers wanting a turn-key starter home or a low-maintenance investment let.
Notable considerations are the compact plot and modest internal footprint — rooms are average in size — and a small, low-maintenance rear garden and communal forecourt rather than a large private garden. There is an annual communal management fee of £626 and the area records above-average crime, which should be weighed alongside the desirable riverside position. Flood-data flags a medium river/sea flood risk for the locality; prospective buyers should obtain site-specific flood advice.
Overall this is a practical, well-located two-bed property that will appeal to first-time buyers seeking a manageable, low-upkeep home or investors after a riverside rental with easy access to Maldon’s amenities. The layout and condition reduce immediate renovation needs, but limited outside space and local safety statistics are material negatives to factor in.
