A light, well-presented one-bedroom maisonette set over two levels, offering comfortable living in Chelmsford’s Newlands Spring area. The lounge/diner is bright and airy, complemented by a modern fitted kitchen and a good-sized double bedroom with built-in storage. The property also benefits from a small garden and two allocated off-street parking spaces — a rare find for this size and price band.
Practical ownership is straightforward: a very long lease (circa 953 years remaining) with no service charge and no ground rent. For first-time buyers this removes many common long-lease complications, and for investors the low ongoing costs improve net returns. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting homeworking and streaming.
Buyers should note the property’s compact overall footprint (approximately 428 sq ft) and that heating is provided by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas central heating. The maisonette was built in the 1980s and has double glazing; there are no reported flooding risks and the area records low crime rates. Nearby schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, and Chelmsford city centre and transport links are a short drive away.
This maisonette suits a first-time buyer seeking a move-in ready home with low running charges, or an investor after a straightforward, low-maintenance let. Internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the light, layout and storage potential.
