Summary - 10 CAVENDISH COURT, BESSEMER CLOSE, BASILDON SS16 5GG
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable 45% shared-ownership two-bed with lift, parking and excellent rail links..
Third-floor flat with lift access to all floors
A practical two-bedroom third-floor flat in Cavendish Court, well placed for Basildon town centre and the railway station. The open-plan living room and kitchen (18’7 x 13’5) gives flexible day-to-day space, while two double bedrooms provide comfortable sleeping accommodation. Lift access to all floors and an allocated parking space add everyday convenience.
This property is offered as 45% shared ownership (option to buy 100% at £225,000), making it a viable route onto the housing ladder. The lease has 109 years remaining and the block is modern (built 2007–2011) with double glazing and gas central heating. Local amenities, several well-rated primary and secondary schools, and quick rail links to London are clear strengths for a first-time buyer.
Be realistic about running costs and local conditions: the service charge is approximately £1, /year (£194 pcm), broadband in the area is reported slow, and local crime levels are very high. The building and flat are described as well presented, but buyers should factor in these practical considerations when deciding to view or proceed.
Overall this flat suits a buyer seeking an affordable, well-located starter home with good transport links and simple maintenance needs, who is comfortable with shared ownership and the community context.
