Set just off Carlton Avenue in Westcliff-on-Sea, this semi-detached bungalow offers comfortable single-storey living with a sunny south-facing garden and secure off-street parking behind electric gates. The layout delivers a generous entrance hall, a bright lounge with bay window and feature fireplace, a well-equipped kitchen and a bathroom with contemporary fittings. The property is offered freehold and sits on a decent plot for the area.
The home suits downsizers or small families who value easy access and outdoor space. Practical features include mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown), a purpose-built garden room plus separate workshop/office, and useful built-in storage. At approximately 779 sq ft the accommodation feels spacious for its type and benefits from a gated driveway large enough for several vehicles.
Buyers should note a couple of material points: the building is original solid brick with no known cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating costs or future insulation work; the internal layout is described inconsistently as two/three bedrooms so viewing to confirm bedroom usage is recommended. The local area records above-average crime and is an inner-city, mixed neighbourhood; prospective purchasers should consider this when viewing.
Location strengths include walking distance to Southend Hospital, nearby primary and secondary schools (including an outstanding boys’ high school), regular bus routes and fast broadband and mobile signal. The property offers good potential for cosmetic updating or modest refurbishment to personalise and increase value.
