Summary - 41 Akenfield Close, South Woodham Ferrers CM3 5XP
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, move-in-ready studio with long lease and parking in the town centre.
Chain free, recently refurbished throughout
A compact, chain-free first-floor studio in the heart of South Woodham Ferrers, recently refurbished and offered with a long 98‑year lease. The flat is presented in good decorative order with a modern fitted kitchen, new vinyl flooring to the entrance and a refreshed bathroom — ready to move into without immediate work.
The building sits within a short walk of the town centre, Asda and local shops, and is around 15 minutes on foot from South Woodham Ferrers train station. Residents benefit from permit parking for two vehicles, a south-facing communal garden that catches the sun and a secure gated entrance to the courtyard.
Practical considerations are important: the apartment is small (circa 316 sq ft) and arranged as a studio, so space is limited. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central system, broadband speeds are reported slow, and the local recorded crime level is high. Service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £1,093 pa service charge; £165 pa ground rent).
This flat will suit a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance, town-centre base or an investor wanting a recently refurbished, ready-to-let studio. Viewings are recommended to judge the layout and light for yourself and to weigh the convenience of the location against the compact internal space and ongoing service/management costs.
