Summary - Flat 11 The Rowans, Wayletts SS9 4ED
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright, low-maintenance flat with parking and strong transport links.
Top-floor two-bedroom flat with open-plan kitchen/living/dining
This top-floor two-bedroom flat in Wayletts offers a bright, open-plan living space and allocated off-street parking — a practical choice for first-time buyers or downsizers wanting low-maintenance living. The lounge, dining area and kitchen flow together into a spacious social hub, supported by double glazing, loft storage access and well-kept communal gardens.
Practical running costs and ownership details are clear: leasehold with 111 years remaining, an annual service charge of around £1,800 and a small ground rent of £200. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas centrally heated alternatives. The apartment is modest in overall size (about 549 sq ft) but economical to maintain; council tax band C is described as affordable.
Location is a strong selling point — a short drive to Leigh-on-Sea station for direct trains to London, easy access to the A127 and nearby green spaces such as Belfairs Country Park and Pound Wood. Nearby schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, which will appeal to families and those planning longer-term stays. There is a £5,000 allowance towards the deposit, which helps reduce the upfront cost for buyers.
Minor drawbacks are factual and important: the flat is leasehold with ongoing charges, electric storage heating may increase energy bills, and the home is compact compared with larger family properties. For buyers seeking a tidy, well-located two-bedroom with parking and quick transport links, this property represents a sensible, low-maintenance entry point to the area.
