Summary - AXIS COURT, 343 FLAT 16 SOUTHCHURCH ROAD SOUTHEND-ON-SEA SS1 2PE
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Well-presented one-bed with parking and lift, ideal for first-time buyers.
Full-width south-facing balcony accessed from lounge and bedroom
Bright, south-facing living is the standout here: a full-width balcony stretches the length of the apartment and is accessed from both lounge and bedroom, creating instant outdoor space for sun and fresh air. The main living area measures 18'2" and flows into a modern fitted kitchen, delivering a roomy open-plan feel that suits everyday living or entertaining. Presented in good order, the flat is effectively move-in ready and offered chain-free for a smooth purchase.
Practical conveniences include lift access to the second/third-floor level, an allocated off-street parking space in a gated area, and useful built-in storage. The property sits close to stations, the city centre and the seafront, so commuting and leisure are straightforward. The EPC is C with potential for B, and the 105-year lease gives medium-term security for leasehold ownership.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is by electric storage heaters which can be costly compared with gas; the building’s timber-frame construction is recorded as originally uninsulated (assumed), so buyers may want to check current insulation and energy-performance improvements. Service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £1,365pa service charge and £250pa ground rent). The local area records very high crime and high deprivation indicators, which may affect resale and personal preference. Council tax is low and the flat’s presentation, size and parking make it a viable option for first-time buyers or investors wanting a well-presented, low-entrance-cost flat in a central coastal town.
