Summary - 227, Ryedene Place SS16 4TF
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Long lease, no chain and strong transport links — ideal first purchase or rental opportunity.
Private balcony with countryside views
A compact one-bedroom flat with a long lease and no onward chain, suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking value. The large open-plan living space and separate kitchen make the layout feel versatile, while the private balcony delivers pleasant countryside views — a rare benefit for a mid-terrace 1960s block.
Practical running costs include an average service charge of £1,065 per year and a ground rent of £100. The property sits in a built form from the late 1960s/early 1970s with double glazing and mains gas central heating; walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so buyers should consider potential energy-efficiency upgrades.
Location is a clear strength: quick access to Pitsea and Basildon C2C stations, major roads (A13, A12, A127), and local amenities including supermarkets, gyms and schools. That transport and rental demand support strong resale or lettings potential, especially for buyers needing easy commuter links.
Be straightforward about scale and neighbourhood context: the flat is small (approximately 388 sq ft), with relatively low ceilings and vinyl flooring, and sits in an area classed with higher deprivation indices and average crime. These factors affect market perception and may influence mortgage or rental interest; inspection is recommended to assess condition and possible refurbishment scope.
