A bright, modern two-bedroom fifth-floor apartment built in 2020 and offered chain free. The open-plan living area leads onto a private balcony, and off-street permit parking is available in the communal car park—useful in this central location. The building provides practical security features including concierge, entry-phone, CCTV and a lift to all floors.
At about 606 sq ft, the flat is compact and suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking low-maintenance, city-centre living close to Southend’s shops, seafront and mainline stations. The interior is in good decorative order with a contemporary kitchenette and three-piece bathroom already fitted.
Important practical details: the property is leasehold (118 years remaining) with an average service charge of £1,600 pa and ground rent of £210 pa. Heating is electric via room heaters and the property uses electricity as its main fuel; this can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The neighbourhood records higher crime and sits within a very deprived wider area classification, which may affect resale or rental demand.
Overall this is a low-upkeep, modern apartment that delivers immediate move-in convenience and strong transport links. Buyers should factor in service charges, ground rent and electric heating costs when assessing affordability and consider the local area profile when planning long-term use or investment.
