This first-floor retirement apartment in Chelmsford places convenience and community within easy reach of the city centre. The layout offers a large lounge-diner, two double bedrooms, a re-fitted kitchen and modern shower room — all arranged for independent retirement living with the reassurance of a 24-hour emergency alarm.
Residents benefit from well-kept communal gardens, a residents’ lounge, laundry facilities and a guest suite for visiting family. The development includes secure entry, lift access and private plus visitor parking, making daily life straightforward and sociable. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with 87 years remaining, a comparatively high annual service charge (£5,836.06) and an expensive ground rent (£792.85). Heating is via electric storage heaters rather than gas, and the area records above-average crime levels — factors to consider for ongoing costs and security measures.
Offered chain-free and built around 1996–2002, the apartment suits downsizers seeking central access and communal support. The accommodation is spacious and ready to move into, though long-term owners should be aware of lease length and recurring charges when weighing value and resale prospects.
