A well-located two-bedroom detached home in Borda Close that suits first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a straightforward purchase. The property is offered with no onward chain and benefits from a garage, driveway and a secluded rear garden — practical features that are increasingly hard to find near Chelmsford city centre.
Internally the layout is traditional and practical: light lounge, separate dining room, fitted kitchen, downstairs cloakroom and two bedrooms served by a single family bathroom. Room sizes are modest but efficiently arranged across approximately 778 sq ft, making the house manageable to run and easy to maintain. The footprint and layout suit a young couple, small family or a buy-to-let purchase.
Location is a genuine strength. The house sits within walking distance of Chelmsford’s mainline station (direct to London in around 30 minutes), highly regarded schools and the city’s shops and leisure options. Broadband speeds are fast and the area is classed as very affluent, which supports both lifestyle and long-term value.
There are a few practical points to note. The interior shows dated mid-century features and will benefit from updating to reach its full potential; the double glazing install date is unknown. The property has one bathroom and a modest overall size, which may limit suitability for larger families. These are straightforward issues for buyers planning modest refurbishment or investors aiming to add value.
