This ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette in Colchester offers practical, low-maintenance living for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan living area and modern fitted kitchen create a bright, efficient space tailored for everyday life and easy entertaining. Allocated off-street parking is a useful addition in a city setting.
At around 490 sq ft the layout is compact: one bedroom is noticeably larger than the other and the bathroom is modest. Outdoor space is limited to a small paved patio area rather than a garden, so this property suits buyers wanting minimal upkeep rather than large external grounds.
Built 2007–2011, the maisonette benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and assumed insulated cavity walls. Broadband speeds are fast and public transport links — including Colchester station — are convenient for commuters.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with about 109 years remaining and an average ground rent of £340. The immediate neighbourhood shows higher-than-average crime levels and the area is classified as deprived; these factors should be weighed against the low purchase price and rental potential. Council tax costs are described as cheap, which helps running costs.
