No onward chain Victorian semi with south-facing garden, ideal for first-time buyers prepared to modernise..
Three bedrooms with two reception rooms
This three-bedroom Victorian semi offers a rare no-onward-chain opportunity close to Brightlingsea waterfront and town centre. The house retains period bay windows and tall ceilings, with two reception rooms and a south-facing garden that catches afternoon sun. At about 855 sq ft, it suits first-time buyers or couples seeking an affordable entry into a coastal town.
The property requires some modernisation throughout — dated carpets, older bathroom and kitchen — but has clear potential to update heating, electrics, and finishes to contemporary standards. A small front garden and potential driveway/garage area at the front add practical value, while the compact plot keeps external maintenance manageable.
Practical details: freehold tenure, mains gas boiler with radiators, average overall size and good mobile and broadband speeds. Local amenities, good primary and secondary schools, regular bus links and waterfront access are all within walking distance. Note: local crime levels are above average, which buyers should factor into their decision and insurance costs.
An internal viewing will best show the charm and scope for improvement in this traditional home — ideal for a buyer willing to refresh interiors and add value in a popular coastal market.
