Light-filled, low-maintenance first-floor apartment set on the edge of Bocking Village, ideal for downsizers seeking comfort and easy access to local amenities. The dual-aspect living/dining room captures framed views of St Mary’s Church and adjacent farmland, giving a feeling of openness despite the compact overall size (approx. 547 sq ft). The well-presented kitchen, two bedrooms and an ensuite to the principal bedroom make the layout practical for everyday living or hosting visitors.
Practical running costs are clear: a long lease (139 years remaining), an EPC rating of B, an annual service charge of approximately £1,464 and a modest ground rent of £150 per year. Parking is covered with an allocated car-port space and there are visitor bays nearby. The property is offered with no onward chain, which can speed a move for a buyer ready to downsize.
The development sits within a communal retirement classification and an ageing urban community, so it will particularly suit buyers seeking a quieter village environment within easy reach of Braintree. Local schools, shops, pubs and regular bus links are close by, and broadband and mobile signal are strong. Buyers should note the property’s small overall footprint and communal leasehold costs when comparing to other options.
