This two-bedroom, 735 sq ft leasehold apartment in Southend-on-Sea offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase for first-time buyers or investors. Set within a mid-20th century terrace, the flat provides a decent-sized living room, fitted kitchen, bathroom plus separate WC, and a large low-maintenance paved rear garden — rare for apartments at this price point.
Practical comforts include mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing (installation date unknown) and a single garage plus unofficial rear parking. The property sits close to local shops, bus routes and the mainline station with direct links to London, and has good local schools rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted — useful for families and commuter buyers.
Buyers should note material issues: the building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, external cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, and glazing history is unknown, so energy upgrades may be required. The area records higher-than-average crime levels, which should be considered alongside the competitive price and low council tax band.
Overall this is a practical, value-led home for someone prepared to accept an older construction with potential for improvement. It suits first-time purchasers seeking a commuter-friendly base or investors looking for straightforward rental potential in a well-connected town location.
