A bright, newly renovated one-bedroom retirement apartment on the first floor of a Georgian/Victorian period block in Southend’s conservation area. The flat (approx. 488 sq ft) combines contemporary finishes — a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances — with original period features and high ceilings, and faces south onto a balcony with views over the bowls green and Prittlewell Square.
The building’s solid brick construction and double glazing help retain character, while excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make the apartment suitable for staying connected. Practical highlights include a compact living/dining room, a well-equipped kitchen and a good-sized bedroom — a comfortable, low-maintenance home for downsizers or retirees.
Buyers should note material points clearly: the property is leasehold, heated by electric storage heaters (likely higher running costs than gas), and the walls are traditional solid brick with no known insulation. The surrounding area is classified as deprived with above-average crime statistics; communal and street safety should be considered alongside proximity to amenities.
This apartment offers an attractive combination of period charm, recent refurbishment and a central location close to cafes, transport and local green spaces. It will suit a retirement buyer seeking a turn-key, compact home in a conservation setting — provided they are comfortable with leasehold tenure and electric heating.
