Compact two-bedroom apartment with private garage and long lease near Chelmsford station.
Chain-free two-bedroom apartment, approx. 559 sq ft
This two-bedroom apartment in Haig Court is a compact, well-located home ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. At about 559 sq ft it offers an open-plan living area, two bedrooms, a modern bathroom and a private garage — a rare find for city apartments and useful for secure parking or storage. The property is chain-free and sits only 0.62 miles from Chelmsford station, making commuting straightforward.
Practical details support easy ownership: a long lease (approx. 132 years), low ground rent (£22.50 pa) and a service charge of around £1,440 pa (£120 pcm). Council Tax Band B keeps running costs modest. Construction dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s with double glazing fitted post-2002, so the building fabric is serviceable but the interior will benefit from updating to match modern tastes.
Be aware of material points: heating is via electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas central heating; the apartment is small, so storage and room sizes are limited; the building is mid-20th century and communal areas may reflect that era. These are straightforward issues for buyers prepared to renovate or for landlords seeking a reliable centrally located rental.
Overall, this apartment offers a practical, value-driven entry into Chelmsford property — especially for purchasers prioritising proximity to transport, long lease security and the convenience of a private garage. It suits buyers looking for a manageable project or an immediate rental opportunity in a predominantly affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
