Summary - 89 COLLIER WAY SOUTHEND-ON-SEA SS1 2AF
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, modern first-floor flat near seafront and stations for first-time buyers.
West-facing balcony with outdoor space
A bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment with a west-facing balcony and allocated parking, offered chain free — a straightforward entry to Southend living. The flat is compact but well laid out across c.710 sq ft, with a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom, double glazing and communal garden access for residents.
Practical details suit first-time buyers: 133 years remaining on the lease, an allocated permit-only parking space, and an established service charge and ground rent (approx. £1,684 pa service charge; £179 pa ground rent). The property is close to the seafront, local shops, parks and mainline stations to London, giving strong local convenience.
There are important drawbacks to weigh. Heating is electric storage heaters, which can mean higher energy bills compared with gas. The development is in an area with very high crime rates and pronounced local deprivation, which will affect living experience and resale perception. The flat is subject to a flying freehold where part of the property sits above the access to the residents’ car park.
For a first-time buyer seeking a well-presented, chain-free flat near transport links and the seafront, this offers immediate occupation and reasonable lease terms. Buyers should budget for running costs and consider local safety and neighbourhood factors when viewing.
