Summary - 55 BUCKERILLS BASILDON SS13 3ER
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable one-bed opportunity with scope for improvement near Pitsea station.
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat, 646 sq ft (large for one-bed)
A compact ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offering affordable entry into Basildon at a guide price of £120,000. The flat sits within a mid-century brick block and includes a small private forecourt, communal gardens and residents’ parking. It benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC currently around band D with potential to improve to band B.
The property is best suited to a first-time buyer or investor looking for a value purchase. The layout and finishes are dated and the flat requires light-to-moderate cosmetic refurbishment throughout, which presents scope for uplift in value or higher rental return after improvement. The lease has approximately 90 years remaining; ground rent is reported at £10 per year and service charges are to be confirmed.
Location and connectivity are practical: around 0.8 miles from Pitsea C2C station for direct access to London, with good mobile signal and fast broadband reported. Local schools include several rated Good or Outstanding, and council tax is low (Band A), helping running costs for a small household or tenant.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the address sits in a very deprived, high-crime area and the building’s exterior and communal areas show wear and need maintenance. There are limited views and modest kerb appeal. A full inspection is recommended to confirm condition, exact floor area and any service charge or management arrangements before purchase.
