This two-bedroom apartment in Saffron Walden, Essex, is presented as a chain-free offering. Located on Allard Way, it benefits from proximity to Saffron Walden’s historic town centre, which provides convenient access to shops, amenities, and potentially local transport links. The apartment itself is described as spacious. Images suggest a reasonably well-maintained interior, with a functional, though possibly slightly dated, kitchen and bathroom. There is carpeting throughout. Two bedrooms are shown, both appearing adequately sized. One bedroom includes built-in mirrored wardrobes. A main living area with access to a balcony is also present.

The absence of information on plot size is a significant drawback, and is confirmed by the zero plot size mentioned in the property details. While the property’s condition is acceptable, some modernisation might improve its appeal and potential resale value. The provided images do not show the external building conditions. The overall price seems competitive within the context of Saffron Walden’s market, however, further research on the specific location and comparative pricing within Allard Way itself is needed for a more thorough assessment of value. The absence of a garden is noteworthy as it could limit the desirability of the property to some potential buyers. Nearby schools, rated as good by Ofsted, add to the desirability of the location. The transport links to Audley End, Newport, and Great Chesterford railway stations increase the property’s attractiveness.

Overall, the property presents a viable option for buyers seeking a centrally located apartment in a desirable market town, though the lack of outdoor space is a substantial consideration.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
