Set within a quiet and well-kept residential development, this home provides a well-balanced and practical layout that makes excellent use of its space. The central hallway runs the full length of the apartment and gives easy access to each room, creating a simple flow that suits day-to-day life. The living room is generous in size at nearly 15 feet across, comfortably fitting a large sofa and dining setup. A large window and glazed door bring in plenty of light and open out onto a private balcony that overlooks a peaceful communal green. It’s a great spot for a morning coffee, a read in the sun, or just enjoying a bit of quiet outdoor space.
The kitchen has been updated in a modern, shaker style with grey units, wood-effect worktops, metro-tiled splashbacks, and a classic ceramic butler sink. The layout provides great functionality with lots of storage, preparation space, and room for essential appliances. A wide window runs almost the full length of the kitchen, helping to flood the room with light and offering a pleasant street view.
The apartment includes three bedrooms in total, offering flexibility depending on your lifestyle. The main bedroom is spacious enough for a king-sized bed, bedside tables and wardrobes, while the second bedroom, currently set up as a nursery, would work well for a child, guest room or study. The third bedroom is ideal as a home office or occasional bedroom, depending on your needs, and currently serves as a calm workspace. All rooms benefit from plenty of natural light and are finished in neutral tones, ready for a new owner to add their personal touch.
The bathroom is bright and fully tiled, fitted with a full-sized bath with shower over, pedestal sink, wall mirror, and frosted window for light and privacy. Next door is a separate WC, which helps with busy mornings or when guests are visiting. The hallway includes a built-in storage cupboard, ideal for coats, shoes or general household essentials.
One of the real advantages of this property is the inclusion of a garage, offering secure parking or additional storage. There is also resident parking within the development. The apartment is part of a well-managed building and is being sold with a lease in excess of 900 years, giving excellent long-term peace of mind and investment security. With everything on one level, it’s also a strong choice for those seeking a future-proof home with minimal stairs or access concerns.
The local area offers a great lifestyle blend, particularly well suited to those who want the convenience of city living but with quieter surroundings. Broomfield Hospital is close by, making this home especially appealing for healthcare professionals or anyone wanting quick access to medical services. There are several well-regarded schools in the area, such as Kings Road Primary School and Chelmer Valley High School, making this a sensible option for young families planning ahead.
Melbourne Park, Andrews Park and other green open spaces nearby offer plenty of opportunity for children to play, for walking the dog, or simply enjoying the outdoors without needing to go far. For commuters, Chelmsford Station is just over a mile away and offers regular, fast trains to London Liverpool Street, ideal for those working in the City. Local bus services run frequently, and for drivers, there’s straightforward access to the A12 and A414.
Chelmsford city centre is just a short distance away and offers a huge choice of shops, restaurants, supermarkets and services, including the popular Bond Street shopping centre and the Riverside Leisure Centre for swimming, fitness and family activities. Local cafés and convenience stores are also within walking distance, helping to make everyday errands simple and stress-free.
