This ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers an attractive, chain-free entry into Westcliff-on-Sea. Positioned in an Edwardian terrace, the property combines period features with contemporary living: a bright open-plan kitchen/diner flowing to a spacious lounge, a large double bedroom and a modern bathroom. The private rear garden is a standout for outdoor space, rare for a flat at this level.
Location is practical for everyday life and commuting. Westcliff station is about a 15-minute walk and the seafront around 20 minutes on foot. Local shops, a supermarket and good primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support working from home.
There are important practical points to note: the flat is leasehold with 89 years remaining and a £100 pa ground rent; the building insurance/service charge is £491.35 pa. The property has single glazing and solid brick walls without modern insulation, so buyers should factor in potential improvement costs. The wider area shows signs of deprivation, though crime levels are very low.
For first-time buyers and investors the flat represents clear potential: immediate occupation possible with no onward chain, rental income potential (estimated c. £950 pcm), plus scope to improve energy efficiency and value through targeted refurbishment. Buyers seeking a completely turn-key, fully upgraded home should expect further investment to modernise glazing and insulation.
