About this home
SUMMARY **Offered CHAIN FREE** Two double bedroom presented well throughout located in the sought-after Horn Book development within walking distance to the Town Centre and added benefit of access to a bike shed.
DESCRIPTION Situated in the popular Horn Book development, this beautifully presented two-bedroom top floor apartment has been recently redecorated throughout and benefits from brand-new flooring, creating a fresh and modern home ready to move straight into.
The well-proportioned accommodation offers a bright and spacious living area, a fitted kitchen, two bedrooms, an en-suite to the main and a family bathroom. A particular advantage of this property is the loft space, providing valuable additional storage rarely found in similar apartments.
Further benefits include access to a communal bike shed and the significant advantage of a lease extension currently being completed, taking the lease term to approximately 99 years and offering added peace of mind for future owners.
The communal entrance has secure intercom and there are stairs to the apartment. Outside are well kept private communal gardens and ample communal parking.
Ideally located within easy reach of Saffron Walden's town centre, local amenities, and transport links, this would make an excellent first-time purchase, investment opportunity, or downsizing option. Saffron Walden is a fine old market town with a good range of shopping, schooling and recreational facilities, including the renowned Saffron Hall, which is situated at the County High School. Audley End mainline station (with fast trains to Liverpool Street and Cambridge) is just two miles distance and the M11 access point at Stump Cross 4 miles.
