Characterful family home with 23ft kitchen, parking for multiple cars and near seafront.
Victorian semi-detached with high ceilings and original period features
A beautifully presented Victorian semi-detached house offering generous family accommodation across two floors. Period features such as high ceilings, bay windows and ornate cornices give character, while a dramatic 23ft kitchen/family room and 17ft bay-fronted master bedroom provide comfortable, modern living space. The property benefits from ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles and a low-maintenance rear garden, practical for busy households.
The location is a major selling point: multiple nearby train stations provide direct services into central London, and Southend seafront, schools and local amenities are all within easy reach. Internally the home reads as well maintained with a utility room and ground-floor WC adding useful day-to-day convenience for a family.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations. There is only one shower-room for four bedrooms, which may require management or future reconfiguration. The property’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated as built, so some buyers may wish to consider insulation upgrades for thermal efficiency. The wider area records higher crime and very high deprivation indices; purchasers should weigh local social factors alongside the house’s attributes.
Overall, this house will suit growing families or professionals seeking generous period accommodation with excellent transport links and low-maintenance outdoor space. It offers a balance of character and contemporary living but may need targeted improvements (insulation, additional bathroom) depending on buyer priorities.
