Summary - 152 LIFSTAN WAY SOUTHEND-ON-SEA SS1 2XF
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious period family house near park, seafront and top schools.
Four bedrooms with principal ensuite shower room
A substantial four-bedroom semi-detached home dating from the 1930s, set on a decent plot in a very affluent Thorpe Bay neighbourhood. The house keeps period charm—bay windows, leaded glass and external decorative features—while offering practical family accommodation across multiple storeys, including an open-plan lounge/dining room and a principal bedroom with ensuite.
Practical benefits include off-street parking for multiple vehicles, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. There is no flooding risk and local crime levels are low, making this a reassuring choice close to Southchurch Park, the seafront and highly rated schools such as Southend High School for Girls.
The property is freehold and of average-to-spacious overall size (about 1,534 sq ft). The solid-brick construction reflects its era but likely lacks modern wall insulation, so buyers should budget for energy-efficiency improvements. Some updating and refurbishment will maximise the house’s potential and comfort levels.
This home will suit families seeking character and space near good schools and seaside amenities, or buyers wanting a period property to personalise. Viewings recommended to assess room sizes, condition and scope for improvement first-hand.
