1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Perfect for first-time buyers or investors seeking low-maintenance, well-connected living.
No onward chain — ready for a quick sale
A bright, efficiently planned one-bedroom ground-floor apartment offered with no onward chain — ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan living area incorporates a contemporary kitchen with integrated appliances and a sleek bathroom, while the double bedroom receives good natural light. Allocated off-street parking and a small private outside area add practical convenience.
The flat is presented to a modern standard and benefits from a long lease (approx. 239 years) making it straightforward to mortgage. Transport links are a genuine strength: Witham mainline station (direct to London Liverpool Street) and the A12 are both close, supporting commuting and rental demand. The vendor indicates an approximate rental yield around 8.8%.
Buyers should factor in ongoing running costs and communal charges: an average service charge of £1,500pa and ground rent of £225pa apply. Heating is by electric room heaters, which can mean higher energy bills compared with gas central heating. The property sits within a generally affluent area but local crime levels are reported as very high, which may concern some purchasers or tenants.
Overall this is a compact, low-maintenance home ready for immediate occupation or rental. It suits someone seeking a manageable, modern property with strong transport links and straightforward purchase terms, provided they accept the smaller footprint and the noted service and energy considerations.
