Summary - 21 MALYON CLOSE BRAINTREE CM7 2QZ
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Well-presented modern flat with parking and direct rail commute to London.
Two double bedrooms, en-suite to principal bedroom
This well-presented two-bedroom leasehold apartment offers practical, modern living in central Braintree, ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking strong commuter links. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite, and the layout provides a lounge/diner, functional kitchen and plentiful built-in storage across approximately 732 sq ft. Allocated off-street parking for one vehicle adds convenience in this central location.
The property is part of a modern brick apartment block constructed c.2003–2006, with double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. It sits within easy walking distance of Braintree railway station (direct trains to London Liverpool Street) and local amenities including healthcare and bus services — a definite appeal for commuters and busy households.
Buyers should note material leasehold costs: about 104 years remaining, an average annual service charge of £2,160 and a ground rent of £125. The local area records a very high crime rate and some nearby secondary schools have lower Ofsted ratings; these factors may affect families and long-term resale or rental expectations.
Overall, this apartment is a convenient, low-maintenance option for someone prioritising location and transport links. It presents straightforward living with scope for cosmetic updating if desired, but purchasers must factor in leasehold charges and local area considerations when assessing value.
