Summary - 31, Laurel Close SS9 2EE
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Large two-bed flat with balcony, long lease and short walk to Old Town and station.
South-facing balcony with estuary and Old Town views
Set on the first floor of a purpose-built block in the Leigh Conservation Area, this larger-than-average two-bedroom apartment delivers bright, south-facing estuary views and easy access to Leigh Old Town, the Broadway, station and beach. The lounge/diner benefits from full-height windows and French doors onto a balcony that frames the Thames estuary — a rare selling point so close to shops and transport.
Internally the layout is generous: two double bedrooms with built-in storage, a modern bathroom and an open-plan kitchen/breakfast room. A sizable section of front garden and a newly extended 173-year lease increase long-term appeal. Offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, it is well suited to first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a manageable home with scope to personalise.
The flat requires some minor refurbishment and updating to bring finishes fully up to date. Buyers should note the above-average crime statistic locally, an annual ground rent of £50 and buildings insurance of around £355 per year. Heating is by mains gas boiler and the property has double glazing, though some elements (wall insulation) may be below modern standards due to the original build era.
Overall this is a well-located, characterful apartment with estuary views and a long lease. It presents a sensible entry into the Leigh market for those happy to undertake modest cosmetic work to maximise value.
