A well-presented first-floor one-bedroom flat offered on a 50% shared ownership basis, priced to suit first-time buyers or those looking to downsize. The apartment sits in a modern purpose-built block close to Southchurch Park and the seafront, with straightforward commutes via Southend East rail and nearby bus routes. Internally the layout is efficient: a spacious lounge, generous fitted kitchen with integrated oven and hob, large double bedroom and a three-piece bathroom. Gas central heating, double glazing and an allocated off-street parking space add practical convenience.
Important practical considerations are clearly stated: the lease has approximately 80 years remaining. This may make mortgage approval difficult or impossible with some lenders, so buyers should check finance options before proceeding. The property sits in an area with high crime levels and significant deprivation, facts that may influence suitability for some buyers and could affect rental or resale prospects.
For a buyer who prioritises location and affordability, this flat presents a low-maintenance, compact home close to green space and the seafront. It is particularly suited to a single occupant, couple, or retiring purchaser seeking a manageable property with easy access to local amenities. If mortgage financing is required, obtain lender confirmation early; cash buyers or those with specialist lending solutions will find the price and position attractive.
The building is modern and well maintained with communal gardens and secure entry; the apartment’s compact 416 sq ft footprint makes upkeep simple. The property offers a pragmatic entry to the housing market but requires informed consideration of lease length and local area factors.
