Description

Offered for sale CHAIN-FREE, this two-bedroom first-floor apartment presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, investors or those seeking a conveniently located home with well-proportioned accommodation.
The property is accessed via an entrance hallway providing useful built-in storage and access to each of the principal rooms. At the heart of the apartment is a spacious lounge and dining area, offering plenty of flexibility for both relaxing and entertaining. Multiple windows provide natural light, while the adjoining fitted kitchen features a range of wall and base units, work surfaces, an integrated oven and hob, sink and space for additional appliances.
There are two bedrooms, both benefiting from built-in mirrored wardrobes that provide practical storage without compromising the available floor space. The accommodation is completed by a bathroom comprising a panelled bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC.
While the apartment would benefit from some cosmetic updating, it offers buyers an excellent opportunity to modernise the accommodation to their own taste and create a comfortable home or rental investment.
Externally, the development benefits from communal grounds and allocated parking. The property is conveniently positioned for local shops, everyday amenities and transport connections, with the University of Essex also within easy reach.
With no onward chain, two bedrooms, generous living accommodation and allocated parking, early viewing is recommended to appreciate the potential this apartment has to offer.

You can secure this property with an optional reservation deposit of £2,500. This forms part of the property's total purchase price and is not an additional fee. The deposit draws up a legally binding exclusivity agreement which gives exclusive rights to purchase the property within an agreed timeframe.

The reservation deposit guarantees that the seller will remove their property from the market as soon as the offer is accepted and the deposit is paid. This means that the property is reserved for you, giving you time to complete the sale without the risk of being gazumped.

The fixed exclusivity period (typically 8-10 weeks) allows you to prepare financing, surveys and property searches with the confidence that you aren't wasting money on a sale that may fall through.
