This attractive three-bedroom mid-terrace Victorian house offers spacious living near Southend seafront, presented chain-free and ready for a buyer to personalise. Ground-floor layout includes a large bay-fronted lounge and separate dining room, while upstairs delivers three bedrooms and a single bathroom — good proportions for a first home or rental.
The property sits within easy walking distance of the beach, Southend High Street and Southend East c2c station, making it well connected for commuting and leisure. Practical benefits include double glazing installed post-2002, mains gas boiler with radiators, freehold tenure and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
There are material points to note: the area records very high crime and is classified as very deprived, which will affect resale and lettings. The house shows internal wear and requires modernisation throughout; walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation and the small rear yard has cracked concrete and needs repair. One bathroom and a small plot may limit suitability for larger families.
For first-time buyers and investors who prioritise location and room sizes, this property is a practical, affordable opportunity to add value through refurbishment. Buyers should factor in upgrade costs (insulation, cosmetic works, yard repair and possible kitchen/bathroom improvements) and consider security measures given the local crime level.
