A bright one-bedroom first-floor flat in Broadlands, Benfleet, offered chain free with long leasehold security (138 years remaining). The accommodation is neutrally presented and ready to move into, with double glazing, gas central heating and a private, well-kept garden that extends the living space outdoors. Off-street parking and a garage add practical convenience for car owners.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry into a very affluent, quiet neighbourhood or an investor wanting straightforward lettable accommodation. The living space is average-sized (about 506 sq ft) and laid out for easy maintenance; the neutral decor reduces immediate redecoration cost or hassle.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: broadband speeds in the area are reported slow, and images indicate wear and a potential damp risk in the living room that may need investigation or repair. There are no service charges or ground rent and council tax is described as low, which helps running costs remain modest.
Overall, this flat combines low ongoing costs, a private garden and private parking with the convenience of an independent entrance and a long lease, making it a pragmatic, low-complexity purchase for someone entering the market or adding a rental unit.
