This modern two-bedroom flat on Baddow Road offers an accessible urban base for a first-time buyer or investor. The open-plan lounge/kitchen, two well-proportioned bedrooms and lift access create a practical, low-maintenance home close to Chelmsford city centre and the railway station.
The interior is presented in contemporary decor with useful built-in storage and a fitted kitchen including electric hob and oven. Secure intercom entry and lift service to all floors add everyday convenience and accessibility. No onward chain and a long lease (circa 118 years) simplify purchase logistics.
Buyers should note some material negatives: the flat is small (approx. 350 sq ft) and sits in an area with very high local crime statistics and a medium flood risk. Service charge and ground rent are modest but apply (monthly service charge approx. £138.88; ground rent £250 pa). Heating is electric with a boiler and radiators; check appliance/service histories as systems have not been independently tested.
For a first-time buyer this flat is an affordable city-centre entry point with commuting convenience. For an investor it offers straightforward tenancy potential given proximity to transport and local amenities, but factor in the compact floor area and local crime/flooding considerations when assessing returns.
