Summary - WILKINSON DROP FLAT 61 OAK ROAD SOUTH BENFLEET SS7 2BG
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Well-presented modern flat near Hadleigh High Street and local schools.
Long lease — approximately 104 years remaining
Bright, low-maintenance top-floor flat in the popular Wilkinson Drop development, offered with no onward chain and a long lease of approximately 104 years. The open-plan lounge/diner flows into a modern fitted kitchen, creating a practical living space for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. Allocated off-street parking and well-kept communal grounds add convenience in a town-centre location.
The apartment has two good-sized bedrooms and a modern four-piece bathroom — a layout that suits sharers, a small family, or someone seeking flexibility. The building dates from the mid-2000s and benefits from double glazing and an EPC rating of C, but heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which could affect running costs.
Practical considerations include a service charge of about £1,233.68 per year and an annual ground rent of £150. There is no private garden and the flat sits on the third floor with stair access only, which may be unsuitable for those needing step-free access. The local area is convenient — a short walk to Hadleigh High Street, shops, bus routes, schools and Hadleigh Castle — though crime rates locally are higher than average and should be considered when viewing.
