Offered to the market with no onward chain, this well-presented two bedroom first floor apartment represents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, investors, or those seeking a low-maintenance home in a convenient Colchester location.
The property benefits from gas fired central heating, and a recently extended lease of over 170 years, peppercorn ground rent, and a very low service charge, making it particularly attractive from a long-term affordability and investment perspective.
The internal accommodation is well laid out and comprises of an entrance hall with a large storage cupboard, two generous double bedrooms, a bright and comfortable lounge / diner, a fitted kitchen, and a walk-in shower room. Externally, the apartment enjoys the rare advantage of its own private garden, a brick-built bin-storage area and a separate brick-built storage area (effectively used as a garden shed) which form part of the leasehold. In addition, there is also residents’ parking for one vehicle.
Mersea Road is a popular, well-connected area, within walking distance of Lidl and local shops. It offers convenient access to Colchester city centre, with its wide selection of shops, restaurants, and leisure facilities, and is also close to the Middlewick Ranges. Regular bus services operate along Mersea Road, offering convenient links to the city centre, Colchester Town and North stations, and Mersea Island. The University of Essex, local schools, and healthcare facilities are also within easy reach, making the area suitable for both owner-occupiers and tenants alike.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious apartment with excellent lease terms, outdoor space, and parking, all within a sought-after and accessible location. Early viewing is highly recommended.
