Summary - CLAUDIUS COURT FLAT 14 ST PETERS STREET COLCHESTER CO1 1EQ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free, commuter-friendly flat close to station and city amenities.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment, approx. 538 sq ft
Bright top-floor living with clear commuter appeal. This two-bedroom apartment in Claudius Court sits a short walk from Colchester mainline station and the city centre, making it a practical base for first-time buyers or investor landlords seeking reliable rental demand. The lounge/diner receives good natural light and the long lease (961 years) plus share of freehold offer ownership stability.
Practical features include secure off-street parking for one vehicle, double glazing and secure-entry access. The building is low-maintenance and the property benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working or students sharing the flat. No onward chain means a straightforward transaction for a buyer wanting a quick move.
The apartment is small at about 538 sq ft and the kitchen dates from the 1980s, so cosmetic updating and modernization will add value. Service charges average £1,292 per year and the local area records very high crime levels — both important factors for budgeting and insurance. The neighbourhood is lively and cosmopolitan, close to shops, eateries and several well-rated schools.
Overall this is an economical entry-level home with immediate commuter convenience and clear refurbishment potential. Buyers should weigh the compact size, dated kitchen and higher local crime statistics against the long lease, chain-free sale and central location.
