Summary - 89 CRESSING ROAD BRAINTREE CM7 3PW
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Chain-free two-bed flat with garden, parking and fast rail links to London.
Freehold, chain-free two-bedroom ground-floor maisonette
A chain-free, freehold two-bedroom ground-floor maisonette offering straightforward, affordable entry to Braintree. At about 603 sq ft, the layout includes a modern kitchen, lounge, two bedrooms and a recently fitted shower room. Outside there’s a lawned garden, parking to the rear and an additional front parking bay.
This property suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor who values proximity to Braintree town centre and the station (direct services to London Liverpool Street). Practical benefits include double glazing, gas central heating, very low council tax (Band A) and fast mobile and broadband connectivity. EPC rating D (64).
Known issues and considerations are factual and important: the building is a Victorian solid-brick construction (pre-1900) with no cavity-wall insulation assumed, so heating bills and future retrofit costs should be expected. The property sits in a generally deprived area with average crime levels; the wider locality is described as primarily renting, so local demand is driven by constrained renters and workers.
Overall this is a compact, affordable home with clear uplift potential from energy improvements and cosmetic updating. For buyers seeking low running costs, easy access to transport and a small private garden with off-street parking, it represents practical value — but budget for insulation/efficiency works if long-term running costs matter.
