Top-floor one-bedroom apartment in central Chelmsford offering compact, convenient city-centre living. The flat has a bright, spacious circa 19' lounge, modern fitted kitchen and bathroom, and an allocated parking space — practical features for first-time buyers or buy-to-let landlords. The property is presented neutrally and benefits from good natural light and views over the communal courtyard.
Practical ownership is a strong selling point: a true share of freehold with a very long lease (963 years) and no ground rent. Service charges total approximately £676.47 per quarter (£2,705.88 annually), covering communal maintenance. The location is exceptional for transport and amenities, a short walk from Chelmsford mainline station and the city’s shops, cafés and services.
Buyers should note material facts: heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives, and the area records very high crime levels — important for residents and investors to consider. The apartment is average-sized for a city-centre one-bedroom and will suit someone seeking low-maintenance urban living rather than expansive space. Sold with no onward chain, it offers a straightforward purchase route.
