A bright ground-floor maisonette offering practical two-bedroom accommodation and a private rear garden, offered with no onward chain. The sitting room is a comfortable 15ft space facing an open greensward; the kitchen is fitted and includes integrated appliances. A useful utility area and a large bathroom add everyday convenience.
Set within a mid-20th-century terrace, the flat is double glazed and has gas central heating (boiler not tested). The 559 sq ft layout suits a first-time buyer or an investor looking for a low-entry purchase; council tax is band A and the annual service/maintenance charge is modest at £394.89.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property (lease started December 1999) — prospective purchasers must confirm the remaining lease length and exact ground rent/charges with legal advisers. The wider neighbourhood records above-average crime and is in a very deprived area, so check local reports if location is a priority.
Internally the property is described in good condition and requires only cosmetic updating for those who want to personalise. The combination of no chain, private garden and accessible size makes it a straightforward purchase for someone seeking an affordable home or rental opportunity in Colchester.
