Summary - 17A LANCASTER GARDENS WEST CLACTON-ON-SEA CO15 6QG
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free two-bedroom ground-floor flat near the seafront with garage and long lease.
Chain-free ground-floor flat with private entrance and courtyard garden
A chain-free, ground-floor two-bedroom flat with its own entrance and private courtyard garden, set on a tree-lined avenue within sight of the seafront. The long lease (999 years from 1976) and a nominal ground rent of £25pa, plus a share of the freehold, give long-term security that is rare at this price point. The accommodation includes a spacious 17'9" lounge/diner with double doors to the front garden, a large L-shaped kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom and a small workshop area. A single garage is included.
This home will suit buyers seeking easy access to the beach and local amenities, plus convenient rail links to London. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting remote working or streaming without issue. Nearby schools and local services are within reasonable reach and several local primary and secondary schools hold Good Ofsted ratings.
The building and accommodation show period character but will benefit from updating; photos note some external brickwork and roof that need attention and interiors that reflect earlier mid-20th‑century fittings. The surrounding area is classified as an ageing urban community with higher levels of deprivation than average and crime is described as average — buyers should weigh local socio-economic factors alongside the property's positives.
Practical points: the property is leasehold, sold chain-free with a very low ground rent and long lease; the garage and private courtyard are useful extras. Buyers looking for a move-in-ready seaside residence should budget for modernization and some external maintenance work. Investors or downsizers wanting seaside access and long-lease security will find this a straightforward proposition.
