Summary - 17, SPALDING COURT, CEDAR AVENUE CM1 2UZ
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Purpose-built McCarthy & Stone retirement apartment, first floor
A purpose-built one-bedroom retirement apartment on the first floor of Spalding Court, built by McCarthy & Stone in 1999. The flat offers a compact but well-proportioned living room, separate kitchen, one bedroom and a bathroom, plus lift access and communal facilities suited to over-60s.
Communal features include a residents’ lounge, laundry, guest suite, on-site Development Manager and a 24-hour Appello emergency call system. The apartment is close to Chelmsford’s shopping centre, bus and train stations, making everyday errands and travel straightforward.
Practical considerations are clear: the property uses electric storage heating and double glazing; carpets, curtains and light fittings are included in the sale. The lease has approximately 98 years remaining and there are notable ongoing costs — an annual service charge of £4,200.54 and a ground rent of £679.59.
This is a sensible option for a downsizer or retired buyer seeking low-maintenance living with on-site support and excellent local amenities. Buyers should budget for above-average service charges and consider the electric heating and local crime rate when viewing.
