We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Welcome to this centrally positioned freehold property on Navigation Road, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a former mid-terraced house that has been thoughtfully converted into two self-contained one-bedroom apartments, all within comfortable walking distance of Chelmsford City Centre and its excellent range of amenities.
Originally a three-bedroom mid-terraced home, the property has been carefully reconfigured to create two well-planned apartments, providing versatile accommodation with no onward chain.
The freehold is being sold in its entirety, meaning the purchaser will own and control both apartments, making this an ideal investment opportunity or flexible residential option.
Apartment 1 (Ground Floor) The ground floor apartment is arranged to offer comfortable and practical living.
It features a welcoming lounge, a well-equipped kitchen, a good-sized bedroom and a bathroom.
The layout flows well and benefits from access to the shared rear garden, creating an appealing living environment.
Apartment 2 (First Floor) The first floor apartment offers its own self-contained accommodation, comprising a spacious lounge, fitted kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom.
The layout mirrors the functionality of the ground floor, making it equally suitable for owner occupation or rental use.
Externally, the property enjoys a shared rear garden and allocated parking to the rear, adding further convenience.
Situated in a central Chelmsford location, the apartments are close to local shops, leisure facilities and transport links, including the city centre.
This well-presented freehold property presents an excellent investment opportunity, combining a prime location with flexible accommodation and strong appeal in the heart of Chelmsford.
