Summary - 7 ALBANY CHASE CLACTON-ON-SEA CO15 6HD
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Seaside two-bed flat with long lease, parking and close amenities — good downsizing option..
Two double bedrooms with 16'5 lounge and balcony
This first-floor two-bedroom flat sits within easy walking distance of Clacton seafront, town centre and mainline station — a practical choice for downsizers seeking seaside convenience. The apartment offers two double bedrooms, a 16'5 lounge with a balcony and private allocated parking to the rear. The property benefits from a very long 999-year lease and low ground rent, which are strong ownership positives.
Internally the layout is roomy for the size (approx. 749 sq ft) and the property has UPVC double glazing and mains gas heating recorded in some documents. There are mixed records about the gas connection and heating type, so buyers should confirm services. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s; cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, and the EPC is rated D.
Running costs are a practical consideration: current disclosed service charge is £622 this year, but the owner reports an average nearer £1,200 annually. Council tax band is B (low). This flat will suit someone wanting immediate, comfortable accommodation near amenities, but buyers should budget for moderate energy‑efficiency improvements and clarify service charge history before purchase.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the room sizes and balcony. The flat is straightforward in condition rather than fully modernised — it offers a sound base for cosmetic updates or continued comfortable occupancy without major structural works reported.
