Summary - PORTCHESTER COURT FLAT 4 CHALKWELL PARK DRIVE LEIGH-ON-SEA SS9 1NR
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact, low-maintenance retirement flat near shops and seafront — lease length may affect mortgage eligibility..
Ground-floor one-bedroom retirement flat, 429 sq ft
A compact, ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in central Leigh-on-Sea, designed for comfortable downsizing. The flat offers a large lounge/diner with sliding doors to a decked balcony, a newly fitted bathroom and a practical fitted kitchen with space for appliances — all arranged across 429 sq ft for easy, low-maintenance living.
Residents benefit from well-kept communal gardens, a communal lounge, on-site manager/24hr careline and first-come first-served parking. The location places independent shops, restaurants and the seafront within easy walking distance, ideal for those who want local amenities without driving.
Important practical points: heating is by electric storage heaters and the property is leasehold with 62 years remaining. Mortgage lenders may refuse to lend on shorter leases, and the service charge (about £220pcm) covers ground rent and building insurance — factor these into affordability calculations.
This apartment will suit a buyer seeking a manageable, community-focused home close to the seafront who is aware of lease length and ongoing service charges. It offers immediate move-in readiness with scope for cosmetic updating to reflect personal taste.
