Summary - 27 MALYON CLOSE BRAINTREE CM7 2QZ
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Ideal starter home within walking distance of town and station.
Allocated off-street parking for one car
This top-floor two-bedroom apartment offers an accessible entry into Braintree living, with a bright lounge, fitted kitchen and both an en-suite and family bathroom. Recent updates include a newly installed boiler, new flooring and double glazing, so day-to-day running and comfort are improved from move-in.
Practical features suit a first-time buyer or investor: allocated off-street parking, gas central heating and an estimated 105 years remaining on the lease. The flat is a short walk from Braintree town centre and the station, making commuting and local shopping straightforward.
Be aware of key trade-offs: the property is compact at about 441 sq ft and sits in an area with very high recorded crime levels, which may affect insurance costs and resale prospects. It is a leasehold with an average service charge of around £2,208 per year; additional leasehold fees (e.g., pack costs) can apply.
Overall, this apartment is best for buyers seeking a low-maintenance, ready-to-live-in home close to transport and amenities, or investors targeting rental demand. Its modest size and local area indicators suggest realistic expectations on long-term capital growth, but the recent mechanical and cosmetic upgrades reduce immediate outlay.
