1 bed flat for sale

Belle Vue Place, Southend-On-Sea SS1

Immaculate first-floor flat | fully boarded loft with staircase | 155-year lease | exceptionally low outgoings | no onward chain

An immaculately presented and surprisingly spacious one-bedroom first-floor flat in an exceptionally convenient Southend location, within walking distance of Southend East Station, the seafront, Southchurch Road and the High Street. Offering generous accommodation, an exceptional fully boarded loft with staircase access, excellent energy efficiency and remarkably low leasehold costs, this is a fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers or investors.

The property enjoys high ceilings, plenty of natural light and a lovely modern finish throughout, ready to move straight into.

A particularly spacious 20ft landing leads to an impressive bay-fronted lounge/diner spanning the full width of the property, with an additional window flooding the room with natural light. The bedroom is an excellent double, comfortably accommodating king-size furniture.

The modern fitted kitchen is unusually generous for a one-bedroom flat, providing ample worktop and cupboard space together with room for a dining table, creating a proper kitchen/breakfast room rather than a compact kitchenette.

The stylish family bathroom is fully tiled with a full-size bath, shower over and heated towel rail, complemented by a separate WC finished with matching tiling.

A real standout feature is the exceptional private loft space, fully boarded and accessed via its own staircase, complete with a skylight, power, lighting and useful eaves storage. This provides an enormous amount of additional storage rarely found in a flat of this type.

Further benefits include a c-rated EPC for better-than-average energy efficiency, fibre broadband, free on-street parking and a satisfactory five-year electrical condition report with approximately four years remaining.

The location is ideal for those who enjoy having everything on their doorstep. Southend East mainline station, Southchurch Road's shops, cafés and restaurants, the seafront and Southend High Street are all within walking distance. Sainsbury's Local and Tesco are also just around the corner, making everyday shopping particularly convenient.

The leasehold arrangements are another major advantage, with an excellent 155-year lease, ground rent of just £50 per annum and service charges of approximately £90 per annum – combined outgoings of only £140 a year.

For investors, the property also offers attractive rental potential of approximately £1,250 per calendar month, benefiting from minimal leasehold costs, an EPC C rating and a convenient location.

A beautifully maintained, move-in-ready home offering excellent space, outstanding storage, remarkably low running costs and an incredibly convenient location. Offered with no onward chain for a straightforward purchase.
