A roomy three-bedroom semi with a generous lounge, conservatory and a decent rear garden — a practical family layout ready for modernisation. The house sits on a sizable plot with a garage and off-street parking, useful for families who need storage and vehicles.
The property requires renovation throughout: cosmetic updating, likely improved insulation and modern electrical/plumbing upgrades will be needed. Walls are solid brick with no known insulation; the home was built mid-20th century and will benefit from energy-efficiency works. There is a single shower room plus an outside utility/WC, so bathroom capacity is limited for a three-bedroom household until upgraded.
Location is a key strength: close to several primary and secondary schools (including outstanding-rated options), amenities, public transport and the A127 for commuting. Mobile and broadband signals are strong, and council tax is relatively low. Note the wider area shows higher deprivation and average crime levels, so buyers should view the neighbourhood personally.
For a family prepared to invest in renovation, this freehold semi offers scope to create a comfortable, energy-efficient home in a well-connected part of Leigh-on-Sea. The layout and plot size give clear extension or reconfiguration potential subject to planning.
