A compact, well-presented one-bedroom ground floor flat in the Markham Quay development, positioned a short walk from Chesterfield town centre and the train station. The apartment offers practical open-plan living, a bedroom with a useful study/dressing area and a separate bathroom — all arranged for low-maintenance day-to-day life.
The property benefits from a very long lease (effectively 999 years from 2004), off-street resident parking and modern double glazing. Broadband and mobile signal are both strong, making this a convenient base for commuters or first-time buyers who need good connectivity and easy access to local amenities.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is by electric storage heaters, the annual ground rent is £250 (index-linked and increases every five years), and the service charge figure is currently to be confirmed. The development was built in the mid-2000s and is tidy, but the apartment is modest in size — typical one-bedroom proportions — so it suits those seeking a starter home or a rental investment rather than a family main residence.
There is a higher-than-average local crime rate in the area, which prospective purchasers may want to investigate. Overall, this is a straightforward, low-upkeep property with strong commuter links, long lease security and clear appeal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors prepared to accept compact living and electric heating.
