Summary - 1581a, London Road, LEIGH-ON-SEA SS9 2SG
1 bed 1 bath Studio
Light-filled top-floor studio with private parking and no onward chain.
Top-floor penthouse-style studio with panoramic Velux walk-out balcony windows
A bright penthouse-style studio in the heart of Leigh-on-Sea, offered with no onward chain and an allocated private parking space. The top-floor position and extra-large Velux walk-out balcony windows create a light, airy feel and deliver panoramic rooftop views — rare for a studio apartment. Recent communal redecoration provides a welcoming entrance shared with only one other flat.
Internally the layout is clever and space-efficient: a custom-built European double pull-down wall bed with integrated wardrobes, a compact fitted kitchen with built-in oven and room for a washing machine, and fibre-optic internet already installed. Running costs are low thanks to all-electric services and a modest ground rent of £100; there is no regular service charge reported, though purchasers contribute one third of the building insurance annually.
This property suits first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance central home or investors after a rentable, well-located studio close to Leigh station, shops and seafront walks. The long lease (106 years) is favourable for mortgage and resale considerations, but buyers should note the apartment’s compact footprint and the sloped roof that reduces head height in parts.
Practical considerations: the apartment occupies an attic conversion with lower ceiling heights in places and a second-floor internal stair; access and headroom will suit some buyers more than others. The flat is leasehold — review the lease terms and the annual insurance contribution as part of purchase checks. Early viewing recommended to assess space and headroom in person.
