An Affordable 1st Floor Flat That’s A Step Up For Tired Renters Or A Tenant Ready BTL. This smart 2 bed has a modern kitchen & bathroom and a long lease. It’s in a quiet spot but is handy for the station, with shops & school just a short walk away.

If you’ve been renting for years and wondering whether you’re ever going to get your own place, this affordable first floor flat might be ideal. Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, it has a proper grown up layout, a long lease and no chain to hold things up.

The lounge is bright and surprisingly spacious, with windows on two walls (that’s “dual aspect” in estate agent speak) bringing in plenty of natural light. There’s room for a proper sofa, a dining table and even a desk if you're working from home. 

The kitchen’s compact but modern, with smart fitted units and room for all your appliances.

The main bedroom is a comfortable double with space for wardrobes and more. The second room could be a nursery, a guest room or your work from home space. 

And the bathroom’s already been upgraded and is perfect for families with little ones - it’s tiled, with a mains shower over the bath.

The heating is electric but don’t panic - there’s no storage heaters - the electric radiators are modern, fully controllable and energy efficient.

Heading outside, there’s plenty of communal parking and a shared garden. There’s a parade of shops with a Tesco Express and a local pub at the entrance to the estate - ideal for last minute dinners or meeting up with friends.

If you need to get into London, both Chelmsford and Beaulieu Park stations are within easy reach - Beaulieu Park is closest and walkable in around 25 minutes - with direct trains into Liverpool Street. 

Local schools include Springfield Primary (just a 10-minute walk away), with a park and play area next to it.

And if life takes you elsewhere in a few years’ time, you may decide to keep it and rent it out rather than sell. It’s sure to be popular and the flat’s rental potential - around £1,300pcm - could make it a smart investment too.

I’m expecting plenty of interest from a wide range of buyers so get in touch to arrange a viewing. Quote RT0654 when calling to view. Calls answered 24/7.
