Chain-free freehold; built 1968 and first sale since construction

A rare, chain-free three-bedroom semi on Thisselt Road offering clear views over Canvey Lake and a detached garage. Built in 1968 and owned by the same family until now, this solid mid-century property provides generous room sizes across an average-sized footprint and a decent rear garden. Its riverside outlook and off-street parking for 3+ cars give immediate practical and lifestyle appeal.
The house requires full updating throughout and is being offered as a refurbishment project — ideal for cash buyers, investors or someone seeking to create a bespoke family home. The ground floor layout includes a spacious lounge, extended dining area, separate kitchen and downstairs WC. Upstairs are three well-sized bedrooms and a single family bathroom.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, very low flooding risk, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and affordable council tax. Local schools include several rated Good, though two nearby secondaries have lower Ofsted outcomes; this is worth checking for families. The property’s size, plot and lake views create strong potential for value uplift after renovation or remodelling.
Drawbacks are clear: the home needs renovation throughout, presenting cost and time commitments. Buyers should budget for modernisation works and check services and structural condition prior to purchase. Cash-ready purchasers will be positioned to act quickly on this uncommon opportunity.
