Victorian three-bed terrace near the seafront, sold chain-free and ready for refurbishment..
No onward chain — immediate completion possible
Offered with no onward chain, this mid-terrace Victorian property sits within easy reach of Southend Central station and the seafront — a practical location for commuting and seaside leisure. The house retains period character such as bay windows, high ceilings and a traditional facade, and benefits from mains gas heating and double glazing (install date unknown).
The layout includes a lounge, dining room, breakfast kitchen, ground-floor WC, and three first-floor bedrooms with a family bathroom. A small courtyard garden provides outdoor space without extensive upkeep. The freehold tenure, modest council tax band C, and a footprint of around 1,225 sq ft make this a candidate for a family home or buy-to-let after modernisation.
The property requires renovation throughout: dated kitchen and bathrooms, cosmetic redecoration, and likely insulation improvements to solid brick walls. EPC rating D indicates energy efficiency upgrades would be beneficial. The area shows higher crime levels and local deprivation, which will affect resale and rental demand; prospective buyers should weigh this against the strong location near transport and leisure amenities.
This is a straightforward opportunity for a buyer prepared to invest in upgrades — suitable for a first-time buyer seeking long-term ownership or an investor targeting rental income. Buyers are advised to commission a full survey and budget for modernisation works and possible insulation, electrical or plumbing updates.
