A chain-free, one-bedroom flat in a 1980s purpose-built block, positioned within easy walking distance of Laindon C2C station. The living room is bright with a bay window and the double bedroom provides generous space for a downsize or rental tenant. Windows were replaced in 2021, improving comfort and efficiency.
Practical running costs include electric storage heating, an average service charge of £1,706 and a small ground rent of £80. The lease has 87 years remaining — adequate for now but worth noting for mortgage or future resale considerations. The property sits in an area classed as communal retirement within an ageing urban community, and the wider neighbourhood shows higher-than-average crime and deprivation indices.
Outside, allocated off-street parking and access to a communal garden add everyday convenience. This flat suits a downsizer seeking low-maintenance living near transport links, or an investor looking for straightforward lettings, but buyers should budget for electric heating costs and consider the service charge and lease length when assessing value.
