Description
This charming ground-floor flat in a handsome period building offers a rare combination of space, character, and unbeatable convenience near central Southend—perfect for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize. Boasting a long 91-year lease, low annual outgoings (ground rent paid until December), and no onward chain, this property is priced competitively for a quick sale.
Inside, you’ll find high ceilings and a bright, bay-fronted living room with a striking feature fireplace, creating an immediate sense of space. The generous double bedroom overlooks the large, fully enclosed private garden—a standout feature in this central location. The well-equipped kitchen has ample space for appliances (including a dishwasher) and direct access to the garden, making it ideal for family living or summer entertaining. A modern bathroom with a rainwater shower completes the accommodation.
The property further benefits from a substantial basement, providing significant storage and the potential for conversion into additional living space, including increased ceiling height (subject to the usal consents, if required). Private off-road parking to the front enhances the property's convenience.
Location is key: Southend High Street’s shops and cafés, Central Station, and the seafront are all just moments away. Whether you crave vibrant town living or a peaceful retreat, this flat offers the best of both.
A one-of-a-kind opportunity—spacious, packed with potential, and in a prime spot. Don’t delay—viewings are essential to appreciate everything this home has to offer.
