Summary - Burgess Springs, Chelmsford, CM1 CM1 1QN
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
First-step ownership with parking and concierge in a central, commuter-friendly location.
25% shared-ownership option available for first-time buyers
An affordable route onto the Chelmsford ladder, this first-floor one-bedroom apartment in Newcombe Court is offered with a 25% shared ownership option. The open-plan kitchen/diner/lounge opens onto a private balcony, creating a bright, flexible living space ideal for a single buyer or couple. A modern bathroom, built-in storage and an allocated parking bay add practical convenience.
The development provides added security and amenity: concierge, secure entry, communal courtyard gardens and an onsite gym with discounted residents’ membership. Commuters benefit from a short walk to Chelmsford station with direct services to London, while local shops and amenities are close by.
Be clear on the costs and setting: the property is leasehold with around 117 years remaining, a service charge of c. £3,027pa and annual ground rent of £100. Heating is via a community scheme, and the area records very high crime levels — purchasers should factor security and insurance considerations into their plans.
With an EPC B rating and compact 485 sq ft layout, the flat suits first-time buyers seeking a low-entry investment into the city centre. It also has buy-to-let potential, though high local crime and service charges will influence lettability and returns. Viewing is recommended to assess the internal space and communal environment in person.
