Summary - 19a Rockleigh Avenue SS9 1LA
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, characterful flat with exceptional loft storage and excellent local schools.
Bright first-floor lounge with large bay window and feature fireplace
This first-floor two-bedroom flat sits in a desirable Chalkwell/Leigh-on-Sea pocket, a short walk from shops, cafés and Chalkwell station. The lounge feels bright and airy thanks to a large bay window, high ceilings and a period-style fireplace, while the shaker-style kitchen and stylish bathroom provide contemporary convenience.
The main bedroom is generous with excellent natural light and the property benefits from substantial loft storage with standing height accessed by a fitted ladder — a rare and practical bonus for a flat of this size. Hallway storage adds further practicality for everyday items.
Practical details: the home is leasehold with about 86 years remaining and an annual ground rent of £250. The building is solid brick (original construction 1900–1929) and likely has limited wall insulation. Total floor area is compact at approximately 582 sq ft, so the accommodation suits first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a well-located, characterful base rather than a large family house.
Local schools are well regarded, including nearby outstanding selective secondaries, and local amenities and transport links support an easy commuter or coastal lifestyle. Council tax is low and broadband speeds are fast, adding to everyday affordability and convenience.
