Summary - 103A ELM ROAD LEIGH-ON-SEA SS9 1SP
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious one-bedroom near Leigh Broadway, beach and station — long lease, low charges.
Chain free first-floor flat with long 157-year lease
A bright, one-bedroom first-floor flat in a sought-after Leigh-on-Sea location, offered chain free and ready for immediate occupation. The apartment provides a generous lounge and a spacious bedroom across an average-sized 582 sq ft layout — well suited to first-time buyers or downsizers who want easy access to shops, cafés and the seafront.
Practical running costs are attractive: a long lease of about 157 years, a below-average service charge of £500, low ground rent (£60) and very cheap council tax. The building dates from the early 20th century and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Notable considerations: this is a leasehold flat (no freehold) and the building’s original solid brick walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating use or future upgrade costs. Crime levels in the area are reported above average. The flat is average in overall size and may be better for couples or single occupants rather than those needing multiple bedrooms.
Location is a key selling point — a short walk to Leigh Broadway’s shops, bars and restaurants, quick access to the beach, and within easy reach of the mainline station. Strong local schools nearby include several rated Outstanding, making this a practical base for families with young children or buyers looking for long-term resale appeal.
