** Character, Style & Lifestyle – A Stunning Ground Floor Apartment with Exceptional Garden Room **
Beautifully blending character and contemporary style, this exceptional one-bedroom ground floor apartment offers far more than first meets the eye. Retaining a wealth of original features including stripped wooden floorboards, fireplaces and elegant bay window, the property has been sympathetically modernised throughout, centred around a stunning open-plan kitchen/breakfast room with a vaulted ceiling and large skylight. Outside, the secluded landscaped rear garden provides a true entertaining space, complete with an impressive garden room incorporating a bar, summerhouse and offering versatile home office or gym potential. The front garden also belongs to the flat and could be enjoyed as additional outdoor space or offers potential for off-street parking (subject to the necessary consents). Further enhancing its appeal, the property benefits from a 50% share of the freehold together with an exceptionally long lease of approximately 192 years remaining, providing peace of mind and long-term security. Ideally positioned within easy reach of Southchurch Park, the seafront, Southend East rail station and the city centre, this is a truly unique home that simply must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
