2 bed flat for sale

Butneys, Basildon SS14

Chain-free. Garden access. Town-centre close. Commuter approved.

Tucked away in a quiet residential spot on Butneys, this bright and well-balanced two-bedroom apartment is a seriously smart move for first-time buyers, downsizers or investors looking for a solid performer with lifestyle appeal.

Step inside and you’re greeted by a practical entrance hallway with storage (because clutter-free living matters), leading through to a generously sized lounge/diner that’s flooded with natural light. There’s plenty of room here for sofa lounging, dinner hosting and Netflix marathons - and the bonus? Direct access to a private garden area. Morning coffee, summer evenings, low-maintenance greenery... Apartment living just levelled up.

The separate fitted kitchen keeps things sleek and functional, with modern units, good worktop space and everything you need to cook, prep or reheat in style.

Both bedrooms are well-proportioned and neutrally finished, offering flexibility whether you’re setting up a main bedroom and guest room, or adding a home office setup (wfh crowd, this one’s for you). The principal bedroom easily handles a double bed and extra furniture without feeling cramped.

A modern family bathroom completes the layout, neatly positioned off the central landing for everyday convenience.
