This one-bedroom first-floor flat in Ilford Court, Epping Close, offers an affordable entry into Great Clacton living. At around 399 sq ft the apartment provides a light lounge, separate kitchen and a good-sized bedroom — compact and straightforward for a single buyer or couple.
Practical benefits include a long lease (122 years remaining), off-street parking and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. The block is relatively modern (1991–95) with cavity walls and secondary glazing helping with basic insulation.
Buyers should note a relatively high annual service charge (£2,424) plus ground rent (£200), and the property relies on electric room heaters rather than a central heating system. The area scores high for crime and is classed as very deprived, so consider local context when weighing long-term value.
This flat suits someone seeking an inexpensive, low-maintenance home to move into immediately or a buy-to-let investor targeting rental demand in Great Clacton. Cosmetic refresh or modest upgrades (heating and windows improvements) could increase comfort and rental appeal.
