Chain-free, ready-to-move-in retirement flat close to shops and city centre.
Top-floor apartment with lift and stair access
A well-presented top-floor retirement apartment in Old Moulsham, offered chain-free and ready to move into. The one-bedroom home has a refitted kitchen and shower room, and benefits from double glazing and cavity insulation installed when built in 1988. An extended lease (approx. 103 years remaining) and communal support make this a practical choice for independent older buyers.
MacMillan Court is a managed retirement complex with a House Manager, 24-hour emergency pull cords, lift access, residents’ lounge, laundry, salon and a guest suite for overnight visitors. The building sits within tended walled gardens and provides private off-street parking on a first-come, first-served basis.
Practical points to note: heating is by electric storage/panel heaters which can be more costly than gas, and there are annual service charges and a ground rent payable. The complex is for residents aged 65+ (men) and 60+ (women). The surrounding area is convenient for local shops, public transport and city-centre amenities, but local crime levels are reported as very high, which may influence buyer preferences and insurance costs.
This apartment suits a downsizer seeking low-maintenance, supported living close to Chelmsford’s High Street. It offers immediate occupation, communal facilities and straightforward single-floor living, balanced against electric heating and communal charges.
