Description

Offered at auction, this vacant one-bedroom first-floor flat is set at the rear of a semi-detached building in a residential part of Westcliff-on-Sea. The accommodation comprises a private entrance hall, a living room opening through an archway to the kitchen, one bedroom and a bathroom. Gas-fired radiator heating is stated, and the EPC rating is D. Westcliff-on-Sea station, Hamlet Court Road shops and seafront facilities are all within the stated nearby area, with further shops, restaurants and transport links in surrounding districts. Residents can use the hardstanding parking area on a first-come, first-served basis, and the lease provides a shared right to use the garden. The flat is leasehold with vacant possession. The seller advises that the lease was extended in 2020 and has 148 years remaining from June 2026, with ground rent currently stated as £300 per annum. Buyers should review the legal pack and auction conditions, including any additional fees, before bidding. The existing kitchen and bathroom, together with the dated interior finishes, offer scope for updating, subject to inspection and the lease terms.

47out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This vacant Westcliff-on-Sea flat offers a tidy, habitable starting point with scope for a light cosmetic refresh. The compact kitchen and bathroom have older finishes, while the living room and bedroom look serviceable; the shared rear garden could also benefit from attention, subject to checking what improvements residents are permitted to make. Its station, shops and seafront proximity add appeal, and the listing describes residents’ parking and a right to use the garden.

The score is 47/100, grade E: location is a strength, but the overall opportunity remains limited. Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sq ft cannot yet be judged. The stated £6,000–£18,000 renovation range suggests a modest project; the garden is shared, and its upkeep and improvement rights are worth clarifying. This is an auction guide price, not a confirmed sale price, and bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated kitchen finishes while retaining the existing fitted layout and visible appliances.
  • Update the older bathroom finishes as part of a light cosmetic project.
  • Explore improving the overgrown shared garden, subject to confirming residents’ responsibilities and permissions.

Key risks

  • The shared garden’s upkeep and the scope for improvements depend on residents’ responsibilities and permissions.
  • Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sq ft cannot be judged yet.
