About this property

Top-floor two-bedroom apartment in popular Great Leighs featuring open-plan living, Juliette balcony and allocated parking, perfectly positioned for Chelmsford City and excellent A120/M11 commuter connections. Stylish village living awaits.

Welcome to Shimbrooks in Great Leighs, where village tranquillity meets modern, top-floor living. If homes had Instagram feeds, this one would be full of golden-hour balcony shots, coffee-and-croissant mornings, and the occasional “just moved in” humblebrag.

Perched proudly on the top floor, this beautifully presented two-bedroom apartment is all about space, light and effortless style. Step inside and you’ll find two generous double bedrooms
perfect for restful nights, productive work-from-home days, or that walk-in wardrobe you’ve always said you “definitely need”.

The heart of the home is the open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining room, a social space designed for modern living. Whether you’re hosting friends for a dinner party, cooking up a Sunday brunch masterpiece, or binge-watching your latest streaming obsession, everything flows beautifully together.

And then there’s the Juliette balcony. Open the doors, let the fresh village air drift in, and enjoy that satisfying moment where the room fills with light and life. It’s the perfect backdrop for morning coffees, evening wind-downs and the occasional “look how lovely my flat is” story post.

Practicality is covered too with allocated parking, meaning no late-night parking roulette. The location couldn’t be more convenient either, offering easy access to Chelmsford City for shopping, dining and nightlife, plus excellent road links via the A120 and M11 for commuters and weekend explorers alike.

Set within the ever-popular village of Great Leighs, you get the best of both worlds: countryside charm with city connections. Think village pubs, community feel, and the sense you’ve escaped the chaos without actually giving up convenience.

In short, this is the kind of place that makes people say: “Wait… you live there? That’s gorgeous.”
