This compact one-bedroom first-floor flat offers an affordable entry to Westcliff-on-Sea with straightforward accommodation and good transport links. The bay-fronted lounge/diner brings natural light and traditional character, while the south-facing garden (not directly accessible) provides an external asset despite limited practicality. The flat sits in a post‑war semi-detached block and is average sized at about 455 sq ft.
The property is best for a first-time buyer or investor prepared to modernise. Fitted kitchen, built-in bedroom wardrobes and a three-piece bathroom give a ready-to-live-in layout, but internal decor and some finishes are dated and will benefit from updating. Double glazing and gas central heating are already installed.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with approximately 85 years remaining and is located in an area with above-average crime statistics and wider local deprivation. Positive location features include close proximity to the A127, bus routes, London Southend Airport, train links and a retail park, plus nearby schools and local amenities.
Overall, the flat represents an affordable, well-located starter home or rental opportunity for someone willing to invest modestly in refurbishment. The private south-facing outdoor space and bay window are useful selling points, while the lease length and local area factors are important practical considerations.
