Summary - FLAT 5, 219, HOLLAND ROAD, CLACTON-ON-SEA CO15 6NL
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious two-bedroom first-floor conversion with scope for improvement and parking.
Huge bay-front living room, south-facing and very bright
This first-floor conversion occupies a striking Victorian detached building and offers a huge bay-fronted living room, two double bedrooms and off-street parking. The flat retains period character in the large sash/bay windows and high ceilings, while a modern wall-mounted gas boiler provides central heating. Practical extras include FTTC broadband, excellent mobile signal and low council tax.
The accommodation is best suited to cash buyers or those able to arrange non-standard finance: the lease has 61 years remaining, which may prevent mainstream mortgage lending. There is visible scope for improvement — the kitchen is compact and the bathroom is dated — so buyers should factor in refurbishment costs if they want a contemporary finish.
Location strengths include nearby schools rated Good, local shops and leisure amenities, and regular bus links. The property sits in an ageing urban community with above-average local crime rates and an overall deprived area classification, which will affect long-term resale expectations and tenant demand.
Practical running costs are modest: service charge and ground rent are low, and parking is available on-site. This property will appeal to investors seeking a cash purchase with renovation upside or to buyers wanting a characterful, spacious flat near local amenities who can manage the lease and improvement work themselves.
