Refurbished flat with parking and excellent commuter links.
Chain-free sale with immediate possession possible
A recently refurbished one-bedroom apartment offering an accessible, low-maintenance start on the property ladder. The flat sits in a modern development close to Colchester city centre, with allocated off-street parking and good bus links for commuting. The long lease (approximately 231 years) and chain-free sale make the purchase straightforward for a first-time buyer.
The accommodation is compact but well laid-out: a generous double bedroom, a bright lounge/diner and a fitted kitchen. The property benefits from double glazing, modern finishes from the recent refurbishment and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — practical for homeworking and everyday life.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold apartment with an average annual service charge of around £1,150 and a ground rent of approximately £200. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives, and there is no private garden — communal grounds are minimal. The overall floor area is small (about 485 sq ft), so the layout suits a single occupant or couple rather than a family seeking large living space.
Overall this is a sensible, affordable entry-level or buy-to-let opportunity in an established, modern neighbourhood. It will particularly suit buyers prioritising location, low maintenance and easy access to transport links, while those wanting outdoor space or gas heating should allow for that limitation.
