This bay-fronted semi-detached home offers classic mid-20th century character with practical family living across two reception rooms and three good-sized bedrooms. A modern fitted kitchen, fully tiled bathroom and a recently installed Vaillant combi boiler reduce immediate maintenance needs while original features such as fireplaces and high ceilings add period charm.
The large west-facing rear garden is a standout for afternoon sun and includes a newly constructed shed and low-maintenance surfaces. There is clear scope to extend and convert the loft (subject to planning), creating substantial extra living space for a growing family or to add value for resale or rental.
Location is convenient: Southend East train station and Southchurch Road shops are close by, and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, supporting home working and connectivity.
Be candid about the local context: the property sits in a very deprived, high-crime area and occupies a relatively small plot. Buyers should weigh these factors alongside the home’s potential, and consider security and neighbourhood investment when deciding to view or bid.
