Full Description: <p><strong>Property Insight</strong><br />Set within a striking contemporary development on the edge of the historic market town of Saffron Walden, this first-floor apartment extends to approximately 1,073 square feet and has been finished to an exacting specification throughout. Two generous double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite, sit alongside a wonderfully open-plan living space, making it as well suited to professional sharers as to those wanting room to spread out. Underfloor heating runs throughout, lift access reaches every floor, and residents enjoy the rare bonus of a large communal roof terrace with far-reaching views. Gated underground parking for two cars, a secure storage cage and the benefit of a long lease round out an unusually complete offering.</p><p>Upon entering, the private hallway sets an immediate tone of quality, with built-in storage and discreetly integrated plumbing for a washing machine keeping day-to-day practicalities neatly out of sight. Beyond it, the home opens into a generous kitchen, dining and living room that forms the heart of the apartment. Engineered wood flooring flows through the living and dining area before giving way to a tiled kitchen zone, where contemporary handleless units are paired with a complementary glass splashback and integrated appliances including an oven and microwave. A breakfast bar offers a relaxed spot for casual dining or entertaining, while large windows draw natural light deep into the space and the underfloor heating leaves walls and floors uncluttered.</p><p>Through to the sleeping quarters, the two double bedrooms are both well proportioned and each served by a private en-suite shower room, complete with walk-in shower and heated towel rail — an arrangement that lends itself equally to guests, family or sharers who value a little privacy. A separate guest cloakroom completes the internal accommodation. Outside, residents share access to a substantial roof terrace, finished with glass balustrading and composite decking, where far-reaching views across the rooftops towards open countryside make it an inviting place to catch the sun. Secure gated underground parking, a storage cage, visitor spaces and a CCTV-monitored entrance complete a home that balances low-maintenance modern living with genuine comfort. A rare opportunity to secure a turn-key apartment in one of the region's most characterful market towns.</p><p><strong>At a Glance</strong><br /><strong>Type:</strong> First-floor apartment, leasehold<br /><strong>Size:</strong> Approx. 1,073 sq ft<br /><strong>Bedrooms:</strong> 2, both double<br /><strong>Bathrooms:</strong> 2 — en-suite shower room to each bedroom, plus a separate guest cloakroom<br /><strong>Reception Rooms:</strong> Open-plan kitchen/dining/living room with large windows<br /><strong>Kitchen:</strong> Handleless units, glass splashback, breakfast bar, integrated oven and microwave<br /><strong>Outside:</strong> Large communal roof terrace with composite decking, glass balustrading and far-reaching views<br /><strong>Parking:</strong> Gated underground parking for two cars, secure storage cage, plus three visitor spaces<br /><strong>Station:</strong> Audley End (approx. 3 miles), direct to London Liverpool Street from around 55 minutes</p><p><strong>Walk Through This Home — Virtually</strong></p><p>Take a 360° tour from your phone or laptop.

Named after the saffron crocus once farmed in the surrounding fields, it is one of England's best-preserved medieval market towns, with hundreds of listed buildings, timber-framed houses and fine examples of the decorative plasterwork known as pargeting.</p><p>At its heart stands St Mary's Church, one of the largest parish churches in Essex, while a twice-weekly market fills the square on Tuesdays and Saturdays. The town centre is thriving, with independent shops, boutiques, cafés, restaurants and pubs sitting alongside familiar high-street names, supermarkets, medical and dental surgeries, a library, a museum and a leisure centre. Cultural life is strong too, from the independent Saffron Screen cinema to the acclaimed Saffron Hall concert venue, and the surrounding Uttlesford countryside offers walks, golf, cricket and tennis. Families are well served by highly regarded schools, including Saffron Walden County High School.</p><p>Audley End railway station lies around 3 miles away, with direct services to London Liverpool Street in about an hour and connections to Cambridge. The M11 is easily reached via junctions 8 and 9, and London Stansted Airport is roughly a 30-minute drive, leaving the town well placed for commuters and travellers alike.</p><br />EPC Rating: C
