Goldlay Square

A contemporary collection of architect designed 1 & 2 bedroom apartments around a private landscaped garden featuring bespoke public art. Located in the vibrant neighbourhood of Moulsham, walking distance from Chelmsford City Centre.

The site previously hosted Essex County Council’s Library Headquarters before becoming surplus to requirements. The site is now home to a scheme of 23 private and 9 specialist apartments (for young people with learning disabilities who are transitioning to adulthood).

The scheme was highly commended for Best Development Under 50 units in the Inside Housing Development Awards 2019.

"Essex Housing was truly incredible, being a first-time buyer it was a nerve-wracking but exciting time. Having the support of Essex Housing when issues arose really put my mind at ease and made my first experience owning my own home a positive one. If a problem occurred, an email was sent to the team, I had a fast response and the problem resolved quickly and efficiently. I can’t thank Essex Housing enough, thank you for your clear and excellent communication and always going above and beyond to help me. This really was my dream first home!" Resident, Goldlay Gardens
