A top-floor, Grade II listed retirement apartment in the heart of Southend, designed for over‑55s who want compact, low-maintenance living close to shops, transport and the seafront. The open-plan living area flows to a south-facing balcony that captures light and views across the tree-lined street. The double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and the shower room is modern and accessible.
Residents have use of communal facilities including a lounge, kitchenette and laundry room, plus well-kept grounds and off-street parking. The building’s period features — bay windows, brick façade and decorative ironwork — give character and curb appeal, while internal finishes are presented in good decorative order.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with approximately 89 years remaining and an annual service charge of around £3,648 (about £304/month), which covers buildings insurance. The Grade II listing preserves historic features but can restrict alterations and may complicate future works. The local area has above-average crime statistics and is relatively deprived, though public transport, shops and parks are all within easy reach.
