Summary - FLAT 1, CHARTWELL PLAZA, 9, SOUTHCHURCH ROAD SS1 2BQ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Income-producing apartment near seafront and stations.
Two double bedrooms, open-plan living room/kitchen
A well-presented two-double-bedroom fifth-floor apartment in the heart of Southend-on-Sea, offered specifically to investors. The flat has a modern open-plan living room with an integrated kitchenette, a contemporary three-piece bathroom and allocated off-street parking. The building has lift access and the lease has around 138 years remaining.
The property is currently let until 29 March 2026 at £1,375 pcm, making it income-producing from day one. Its central location places shops, restaurants, Southend Victoria and Southend Central stations and the seafront within easy walking distance — attractive for urban renters and short commuting journeys into London.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the apartment uses electric room heaters (no gas central heating), and the building sits in an area with higher crime rates and significant local deprivation. The unit is leasehold with a recurring ground rent (approx. £375) and is compact at about 573 sq ft with no private outdoor space.
This is a straightforward purchase for an investor seeking city-centre rental exposure and long-lease security. The combination of immediate rental income, central location and allocated parking supports lettability, but factor ongoing service charges, ground rent and the building’s urban context into your yield calculations.
