A rare freehold development plot in Leigh-on-Sea offering a substantial building footprint (7,642 sq ft) located within easy walking distance of Old Leigh’s cobbled streets, the beach and the train station. The site presents strong coastal appeal with potential for units designed to capture estuary and sea views — a compelling proposition for buyers seeking seaside living or short-stay rental demand.
The existing descriptions note Victorian character and seaside aspects alongside contemporary design concepts; this mix gives scope to deliver period-led homes with modern interiors or a clean new-build approach. Flooding risk is reported as none and the area is affluent with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, supporting high-quality residential or holiday-use proposals.
Notable negatives are clear and should factor into acquisition planning: parts of the property are described as dilapidated and requiring renovation, and the immediate location reports above-average crime. The plot size is described as small despite a large overall built area, so check exact boundaries and site constraints before proceeding. Tenure is freehold and parking provision includes a garage, which will support family buyers or long-stay tenants.
This opportunity suits developers or investor-builders who can manage refurbishment or redevelopment work and who value proximity to strong local amenities and highly rated schools nearby. Due diligence on site condition, security measures and any planning or access limitations is advisable before committing.
