Bright, well-presented one-bedroom apartment in a modern purpose-built block on Fairfield Road. The reception room and double bedroom give a comfortable layout for a first home, and good front-facing windows bring natural light into the living space. A contemporary fitted kitchen and bathroom mean you can move in with minimal immediate work.
Practical extras include an allocated off-street parking space and driveway, double glazing, and an electric-boiler heating system. Built after 2007, the block is relatively recent and benefits from modest communal landscaping and on-site surface parking. The flat is a short walk from local shops, buses and Braintree Station, which offers direct services to London—useful for commuters.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat: average service charge circa £1,750 pa and ground rent £150 pa. The apartment is compact at around 453 sq ft, so it suits single buyers or couples rather than families. The local area records a very high crime level, which may affect suitability and insurance costs; prospective buyers should investigate local safety measures and checks.
This property is well suited to a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance starter home with good transport links and private parking. Verify lease length, service charge accounts and commission any necessary surveys before committing to ensure the ongoing costs and building management meet your needs.
