This recently refurbished two-bedroom Victorian terraced house in Chelmsford is offered chain free and ready to move into. The property keeps many original period features—sash windows, fireplaces and traditional brick facade—paired with modern finishes throughout, providing immediate comfort with character. With an average overall size of 802 sq ft, the layout includes two formal reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and a first-floor bathroom.
Location is a key strength: the city centre and train station are within walking distance, with quick access to the A12 for commutes. Local amenities, schools with good Ofsted ratings nearby and low local crime levels make this a practical option for first‑time buyers or professionals seeking a well‑connected base.
Practical notes: the rear garden is low maintenance and the property is freehold, but the plot is small. The house was built 1900–1929 with solid brick walls (no built-in insulation assumed) and double glazing installed before 2002, so buyers may wish to consider further insulation or window upgrades to improve energy efficiency. Council Tax is Band C, and mains gas heating is by boiler and radiators.
Overall this is an attractive, move-in-ready purchase for someone entering the market or downsizing who values character, convenience and low immediate maintenance, while being comfortable planning modest energy-efficiency improvements over time.
