Summary - 11 ALMA DRIVE CHELMSFORD CM1 1TW
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Versatile period property with gardens and parking, ready for renovation.
Close to Chelmsford station — about 0.4 miles walk
A short walk from Chelmsford station (approximately 0.4 miles), this three-bedroom semi-detached period home offers versatile living across roughly 940 sq ft. The property benefits from off-street parking, two separate garden areas and gas central heating, making it a practical choice for commuters or investors seeking rental potential.
The house is an older Victorian build (c.1900–1929) with character features but it requires renovation throughout. Expect modernization work, possible damp in parts of the exterior brickwork, and solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation. Two bedrooms are on the ground floor, which suits some household layouts but should be noted before viewing.
Internally the layout includes a lounge/diner with patio doors from the extension, kitchen with rear garden access, a ground-floor WC and a first-floor double bedroom with study area. The small plot and inner-city location mean outdoor space is modest, while the nearby city amenities, parks and excellent rail links to London are strong location advantages.
This freehold property is best for a buyer comfortable with renovation — either a first-time buyer ready to add value or an investor targeting rental returns. Council tax is described as low, broadband and mobile signal are strong, and flood risk is low; however local crime levels are above average and the property will need updating to realise its potential.
