Set on Edith Road in central Southend, this three-bedroom semi-detached home is offered chain free and ready for renovation. The house has solid space to work with: a large frontage and block-paved parking, a detached oversized garage, and a private, wider-than-average rear garden. There is clear potential to extend (subject to planning permission), making it attractive for growing families or investors seeking added value.
The property needs modernisation throughout; refurbishment is required to bring interiors up to contemporary standards. Practical positives include freehold tenure, no flood risk, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home working — and convenient access to three nearby train stations (all under a mile). Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within walking distance, including a top-performing boys’ grammar school.
Buyers should note the wider neighbourhood scores high for deprivation and records higher crime levels than average; this is a material factor for families and investors to consider. The house itself is average-sized (around 1,183 sq ft) with typical mid-20th-century proportions: medium rooms, standard ceiling heights and bay windows. With sensible investment, the layout and plot size offer good scope to increase living space and resale value.
