Summary - Silverdale Avenue, Westcliff on Sea SS0 9BA
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Move-in-ready first home or pragmatic investment with long lease.
Two-bedroom first-floor flat with open-plan living
A compact, ready-to-move-in two-bedroom first-floor flat suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking low maintenance. The apartment’s open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area creates a bright social space, while both bedrooms are well-proportioned for the size. The kitchen and bathroom are modern and functional, so no immediate updates are required to live comfortably or let out quickly.
Practical benefits include a very long lease (approximately 160 years remaining), double glazing installed post-2002, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and fast broadband — useful for home working. Council tax is very cheap and there is no flood risk. Ground rent is low at £50 per year.
Be realistic about the limits: total internal area is small (around 377 sq ft), and the building’s solid brick walls likely have no cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs. The wider area scores as deprived and crime levels are average; these factors are relevant for families weighing local services and long-term resale. The property’s Edwardian build contributes period charm but also indicates older construction details.
Overall this flat offers straightforward, affordable entry onto the property ladder or a compact rental opportunity. Buyers who prioritise low upfront renovation and long lease security will find strong value here, while those wanting larger living space or higher-spec neighbourhood amenities should consider the size and local area context carefully.
