Description

Positioned on the second floor of a well-kept residential development on Parkinson Drive, Chelmsford, this super-stylish two-bedroom apartment is proof that modern living doesn’t have to mean sacrificing space, comfort or convenience.

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.

Chelmsford is a vibrant and well-connected city that perfectly balances historic charm with modern convenience. Officially granted city status in 2012, it offers an excellent lifestyle appeal with a bustling city centre packed with shops, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities, alongside attractive green spaces and riverside walks. The city is particularly popular with commuters thanks to its fast and frequent rail services into London Liverpool Street, while also benefiting from strong road links via the A12 and A130. Chelmsford is known for its high-performing schools, both state and independent, making it a favourite with families, and it continues to attract professionals and investors alike due to ongoing regeneration and a thriving local economy. Overall, Chelmsford delivers the ideal mix of connectivity, community and quality of life.
