The open-plan lounge/kitchen opens onto a balcony, while the master bedroom benefits from an en suite—sensible layout for couples or first-time buyers seeking a manageable home.
The property is offered as 35% shared ownership, making the purchase more affordable, and the seller will contribute £5,000 towards service charge costs. Secure underground parking is included and the long lease (117 years remaining) provides tenure stability. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent.
Be aware of the higher-than-average service charge (approx. £3,737.64/year) and the local area records very high crime levels; these are material factors for budgeting and security planning. The apartment is small (approx. 443 sq ft) and designed for compact city living rather than larger-family use.
Overall this apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-entry purchase in central Chelmsford, offering straightforward fixtures and potential to personalise, but buyers should factor ongoing service costs and local safety considerations into their decision.
