Investor Opportunity | Tenant in Situ | EPC C | Long Lease | Prime Central Location

A fantastic opportunity to acquire this generous one-bedroom first floor flat, positioned within an attractive and well-maintained period building on sought-after Kilworth Avenue, right in the heart of Southend.

Offered with a professional tenant already in situ, this is an ideal turnkey investment generating an immediate income, with the current rent at £850 pcm and scope to increase towards £925 pcm in line with current market levels.

The property is considered a fully compliant let, benefitting from valid eicr and Gas Safe certification, along with the major long-term advantage of an EPC rating C, helping future-proof the investment against upcoming rental legislation.

Internally, the flat offers a bright and well-balanced layout, including a generous landing with loft access, adding a sense of space rarely found in similar properties.

The bay-fronted reception room is a particularly attractive feature, filled with natural light and offering comfortable lounge and dining space.

The kitchen is well equipped and practical, while the property also benefits from a three-piece bathroom suite and a good-sized double bedroom.

Further benefits include double glazing, residents permit parking and low leasehold outgoings.

The location is a major draw for tenants. Positioned within walking distance of the seafront, Southend town centre, local parks and Southchurch Road amenities, with three mainline rail links nearby providing direct access into London.

The property is also sold with a long lease (approximately 189 years remaining from 31st December 1988), enhancing long-term security and mortgageability.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a well-located, income-producing investment property below typical market value, in one of Southend’s most consistently popular rental areas.
