Summary - 61 COURTLANDS CHELMSFORD CM1 4DD
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Light-filled two-bedroom flat with parking and garage — ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Second-floor two-bed flat with spacious, light-filled lounge
Set on the second floor of a well-kept mid-20th-century block, this two-bedroom apartment offers a practical, light-filled living space ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The lounge is spacious with large windows, and the layout includes two good-sized bedrooms, a separate WC and a compact kitchen — efficient for everyday living.
Practical advantages include resident parking and a private garage, providing secure storage and convenience in a city-centre fringe location. The building sits close to Chelmsford city centre with local shops, buses and good schools nearby, making it easy to rent or settle in. Council tax is affordable and there is no recorded flood risk.
Notable considerations: the flat is leasehold, heated by electric storage heaters and the building has cavity walls with presumed no added insulation — buyers should expect potentially higher heating costs and consider EPC/upgrades. Windows are double glazed but install date is unknown; the block dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and retains period fixtures that may suit some buyers but require updating for others.
Overall this apartment represents a sensible entry-level purchase or an investment with straightforward management and rental appeal. It will suit someone looking for a low-maintenance suburban flat close to city amenities who is willing to carry out modest modernisation to improve energy efficiency and comfort.
