Affordable Estuary Living Worth its Salt: Limebrook Walk, Maldon in Essex

With an independent-shop and restaurant-lined High Street so cute you could pinch its cheeks and a quayside revealing the historic working waterfront home to active sailing barges, Maldon is a market town with much to offer its residents. Add in the ancient tradition of oyster farming on the mud flats and the famous salt, the history of the town adds to its charm.

Adding to the grade II listed loveliness, Limebrook Walk is a collection of new Peabody Homes Shared-Ownership homes, close to Promenade Park on the edge of town. Linked by green spaces, these one- and two-bedroom apartments offer light-filled spaces combining contemporary clean lines with mid-century modern styling and warm tones creating an undeniably timeless appeal.

For commuters, the stagecoach, which once ran stopped here on it’s route between Essex and East London in the 18th-century, has been replaced by the 21st-century option of catching the train from nearby North Fambridge or Hatfield Peverel train stations (around five km away), arriving at London Liverpool Street in 35 minutes.

Prices start at £200,000 for a one-bedroom apartment with 30% share for £60,000 (£6,000 deposit required).
