Description
This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Leigh-on-Sea has been in the same family since it was built around the mid-1930s. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes two reception rooms, a separate kitchen and a family bathroom. The rooms are described as well proportioned, with measurements provided for the principal rooms and bedrooms. The property is offered with no onward chain and requires modernisation, giving a purchaser scope to update the interior to their requirements. There is a garage to the rear. Belfairs Woods, local amenities and the wider Leigh-on-Sea area are nearby.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
52out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This characterful 1930s semi in Leigh-on-Sea has a clear light-refresh canvas: the rooms appear usable, while dated finishes, flooring and fittings offer scope to put your own stamp on the interior. The maintained rear garden, garage, two reception rooms and no onward chain add to its appeal, with Belfairs Woods nearby.
The score is a weaker overall opportunity, but not because the £550,000 asking price has been shown to be dear: floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The home’s history and practical layout are distinctive positives, though the value case remains difficult to assess without that comparison.
Key opportunities
- Refresh dated finishes and flooring across the usable interior to give the home a more contemporary feel.
- Make the most of the two reception rooms and three-bedroom layout.
- Retain the appeal of the maintained rear garden and garage, with Belfairs Woods close by.
