Discover a truly unique opportunity to acquire this expansive ground floor apartment, set within a bay-fronted Edwardian building. This property is a rare find, offering the highly sought-after benefits of a bungalow—including your own private front driveway and a substantial, beautifully landscaped rear garden (approx. 50ft x 30ft)—combined with the character of a period home.
The financials are straightforward and appealing, with a long 152-year lease, a low ground rent of £60 per year, and a reasonable service charge of £400 (approx.) per annum which includes buildings insurance.
The flat itself is both versatile and generous, featuring glorious high ceilings, full double glazing, and a layout that provides immense flexibility.
The accommodation comprises:
A welcoming entrance hall with built-in storage.
A huge, bay-fronted lounge/diner, a glorious and luxurious room with high ceilings.
A spacious bedroom with direct access to the rear garden and featuring a wall of fitted mirrored wardrobes.
A stylish and well-designed kitchen with pleasant garden views.
A practical utility area with plumbing for a washing machine.
A stunning, newly renovated (2023) dual-aspect bathroom, featuring a modern three-piece suite with a large walk-in shower and a heated towel rail.
This home is not only beautiful but also efficient, featuring a recently installed combi boiler (1 years old) and fully double glazed, contributing to low running costs.
The location is excellent, placing you within easy walking distance of the vast amenities on Southchurch Road and Southend Town Centre.
Ideal for those seeking the space of a house with the convenience of a flat, this is a home that must be seen to be fully appreciated.
