Summary - 147 MEADGATE AVENUE CHELMSFORD CM2 7NH
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable starter or rental flat with parking and private patio garden.
Ground-floor one-bedroom apartment, approx. 437 sq ft
This one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Great Baddow offers an affordable entry into Chelmsford with practical extras: off-street parking, a private patio garden and a separate utility room. At around 437 sq ft the accommodation is compact but arranged with a lounge/diner, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom—suited to a single buyer or couple.
The property sits on a long lease (circa 101 years) with a low reported ground rent and very cheap council tax, keeping ongoing costs down. Transport links are strong: regular buses nearby, quick road access to the A12 and fast rail services from Chelmsford to London, making commuting straightforward. Broadband is reported as fast and mobile signal excellent.
Be realistic about the location and size. The area is classified as deprived with higher-than-average crime; buyers should judge local security and lifestyle fit. The flat is mid-20th century and described as small — it will suit someone wanting a modest, low-maintenance home or an investor targeting the rental market. A basic refurbishment or modernising works would increase appeal and value, but no major structural issues are stated.
Viewings are recommended to assess space and condition for yourself. Important practical points — leasehold tenure, potential additional fees for lease information packs, and that services/appliances have not been tested — should be independently checked before purchase.
