Summary - 29 BAKER MEWS MALDON CM9 5AF
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free first-floor flat with river outlook, guest suite and parking.
Stunning river views from living room and main bedroom
Set on the first floor of a purpose-built development on Maldon High Street, this two-bedroom apartment offers direct views across St Mary’s and the Blackwater Estuary. The living/dining room and main bedroom both face the river, creating bright, calm rooms and a pleasant outlook. The building includes communal facilities such as a social lounge, laundry, guest suite (available to book), communal gardens and off-street parking for residents and visitors.
Designed for the over-60s, the apartment has emergency pull cords throughout and practical built-in storage. The kitchen includes an eye-level oven and electric hob; the shower room is fitted and accessible from the hallway. Double glazing and cavity wall construction help with insulation, while the property benefits from fast local broadband and no flood risk.
Important practical points: the lease has about 62 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders will be unwilling to lend on leases of this length, which may restrict purchase options to cash buyers or those able to arrange specialist finance. Annual service charge and ground rent are substantial and should be factored into affordability — service charge c.£3,365.67pa and ground rent c.£332.74pa. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than a communal or gas system.
This is a chain-free opportunity for a buyer seeking a convenient High Street location with communal support and an attractive estuary outlook. It suits someone wanting low-maintenance living close to Maldon’s shops and riverside rather than a buyer seeking a long lease or mortgage-dependent purchase.
