Shire Gate, Chelmsford

The Property
Head up to the seventh floor and through the front door, where a spacious entrance hall gives you plenty of room to kick off your shoes before leading through to the rest of the apartment.

The main living space is undoubtedly the star of the show. Measuring approximately 18'6" x 16', the open plan kitchen/living/dining room is a great size and, thanks to all those windows, wonderfully light too. There’s ample room for a proper dining table as well as a comfortable seating area, so whether you’re having friends over or settling in for a quiet night, it works equally well.

The kitchen sits neatly to one side, fitted with a range of clean white units contrasted by dark worktops, with an integrated oven and hob and space for the everyday appliances.

Large glazed doors lead directly from the living area onto the balcony, while the abundance of glazing wraps around the room and makes the most of the elevated position and far-reaching outlook.

Both bedrooms are good-sized doubles, each with large windows bringing in plenty of natural light. The principal bedroom also has built-in wardrobe storage, leaving plenty of usable floor space.

Completing the accommodation is the bathroom, fitted with a white suite including a bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC, finished with contrasting dark tiling.

The Outside
One of the real bonuses here is the private balcony. Accessed directly from the living room, it gives you your own outside space high above the city, with views across Central Park and the surrounding Chelmsford skyline. There’s room for a small table and chairs too, making it a lovely spot for a morning coffee or a glass of something at the end of the day.

Century Tower has lift access to the upper floors, while downstairs the apartment also benefits from an allocated parking space – a particularly useful addition this close to the city centre.

The Area
Century Tower sits in a really handy spot for enjoying Chelmsford without having to rely on the car. Central Park is virtually on the doorstep, providing plenty of green space for walks, running or simply escaping the bustle of the city.

Chelmsford city centre is within easy reach and offers a huge choice of shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, together with leisure and entertainment facilities.

For commuters, Chelmsford railway station is also within walking distance, with regular services into London Liverpool Street. By road, there is convenient access towards the A12, linking with the M25 and wider road network.

It’s a location that gives you the best of both worlds – city centre convenience with acres of parkland close by.
