Three bedrooms in a renovated Edwardian semi-detached house
A beautifully presented three-bedroom Edwardian semi in Southchurch Park, recently renovated and ready to move into. The ground floor has an open-plan kitchen/dining room with French doors onto a sunny west-facing garden and a contemporary garden room — ideal for family meals and relaxed entertaining. The house retains period character externally, including bay windows and a gable roof, while benefiting from modern upgrades throughout.
Practical strengths include a block-paved driveway with off-street parking for two, a single garage in a rear block, double glazing installed post-2002, mains gas central heating and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. The property sits in a very affluent, low-crime neighbourhood close to Southend seafront, Southend East station and a range of local shops and services — appealing for commuting families.
Notable considerations: the plot is small, so outdoor space is compact, and the building’s original solid-brick walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation. There is a single family bathroom. One nearby secondary school is rated as “requires improvement,” though several primary and a highly rated girls’ grammar are close by. The house is freehold and shows well for buyers wanting a move-in-ready period home with modern comforts, but buyers seeking a larger garden or guaranteed wall insulation should factor that in.
