The asking price of £175,000 for a one-bedroom flat in Chelmsford seems relatively reasonable considering comparable listings in the area. While prices vary widely, the listing falls within the price range of nearby similar properties. Given the relatively recent renovation of certain areas and the desirable location near good schools, it is possible that the price reflects the market value. Further investigation into precise square footage and a property survey would confirm its accurate market value.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be in good condition. The kitchen and bathroom look recently updated or well-maintained, showing modern fixtures and finishes. The living areas also present as clean and well-kept, though the images do not show all areas of the property. There are no visible signs of major repairs or renovations needed. The overall impression is one of a reasonably well maintained property, justifying a score above average.

The property benefits from a location near several highly-rated schools, including Great Baddow High School (Good Ofsted rating) and Beehive Lane Community Primary School (Outstanding Ofsted rating), making it attractive to families. Proximity to Chelmsford city centre (3.26 km) provides access to amenities, employment opportunities, and transport links. However, the absence of more detailed information on local shops and other amenities within immediate walking distance slightly lowers the score.

The property has minimal land. Images show a small, sparsely vegetated area directly adjacent to the building but lack definitive information of an exclusive garden.
