Summary - 100 WATERVILLE DRIVE VANGE BASILDON SS16 4TY
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free one-bed near Pitsea station with long lease and low council tax.
Chain-free one-bedroom second-floor apartment with 158-year lease
A bright, chain-free one-bedroom apartment with a long 158-year lease and practical living for first-time buyers. The flat sits on the second floor of a 1980s red-brick development and offers a comfortable lounge/diner, a double bedroom, a modern kitchen and a luxury bathroom. Full double glazing and fast broadband make it move-in ready for immediate occupation or rental.
The location is a key benefit: short walk to Pitsea town centre and train station, with quick access to the A13 and A130 for commuting. There is plentiful resident and visitor parking and a low Council Tax Band A, which helps running costs. Service charges run at about £1,452 per year (approx. £121/month) and include ground rent, buildings insurance and water rates.
Be aware of material drawbacks: the area shows high crime and relative deprivation, and heating is electric room heaters rather than a communal or gas system — running costs may be higher in winter. The apartment is average-sized at about 453 sq ft, so limited storage and space planning should be considered. Overall, this is a practical, low-entry-cost home or rental buy with good transport links and a very long lease.
