About this property
Second floor, two-bedroom apartment - ideal for first-time buyers, professionals or savvy investors
Bright and spacious lounge/diner - big enough for entertaining, chilling and everything in between
Separate modern kitchen - because open-plan isn’t for everyone (and that’s okay)
Newly fitted bathroom - sleek, stylish and zero renovation stress
Two well-proportioned bedrooms - flexible space for sleeping, working or both
Recently installed new windows throughout - more light, better efficiency, happier mornings
Allocated parking space - the unsung hero of modern apartment living
Central entrance hall layout - practical, private and thoughtfully designed
Super modern finish throughout - turn the key, unpack, relax
Just 0.8 miles from Chelmsford station - ideal for commuters and city-bound lifestyles
Step inside and you’re greeted by a central entrance hall that keeps everything neat, connected and effortlessly functional - because no one likes walking through a bedroom to get to the bathroom. From here, the apartment opens into a generous lounge/diner that easily handles everything from quiet Netflix nights to hosting friends for dinner (or brunch - we don’t judge). Flooded with natural light via brand new windows, this space feels bright, airy and undeniably inviting.
The separate kitchen keeps cooking smells firmly where they belong while offering a clean, contemporary setup that’s both practical and stylish - ideal whether you’re batch-cooking for the week or perfecting your signature pasta dish.
Both bedrooms are well proportioned and versatile, with the main bedroom offering excellent space for wardrobes and additional furniture, while the second bedroom is perfectly suited as a guest room, home office or that all-important Peloton-slash-yoga-slash-“i’ll use it one day” room.
The newly fitted bathroom is fresh, modern and ready to impress, with sleek finishes and a crisp design that feels straight out of a interiors mood board. Add in the fact the property is immaculately presented throughout, and you’ve got a home that’s completely move-in ready - no diy weekends required.
To top it all off, the apartment benefits from an allocated parking space (yes, really - no circling the block) and sits in a popular Chelmsford location with easy access to the city centre, transport links and local amenities.
In short: Modern, low-maintenance living with all the right extras.
