This two-bedroom second-floor flat offers compact, practical living close to Clacton town centre and rail links. The layout is traditional with a good-sized living room, a small kitchen and two bedrooms; the property sits within communal courtyards front and rear and includes off-street parking. Council tax is very low, and broadband and mobile signal are strong—useful for staying connected or renting out.
The flat has clear renovation potential: the kitchen is dated (1980s style), and general modernisation would increase comfort and value. The property has mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and appears to have cavity walls with insulation.
Important buyer information: the lease has 68 years remaining. This is short enough that many mortgage lenders may refuse to lend, so purchasers should check finance options and consider lease-extension costs before committing. The local area shows high crime levels and high deprivation, which will affect long-term resale and rental prospects.
This home is best suited to a cash buyer, someone able to undertake modest modernisation, or a downsizer seeking a central Clacton location with easy rail access. Viewings will show the flat’s practical layout and the scope to update to current standards.
