2 bed detached house to rent

Leigh Hill, Leigh-On-Sea SS9

Home Of Leigh are proud to present to let this three-storey, detached character property in the very heart of Leigh on Sea. Flanked by fisherman's cottages, the lovingly maintained residence sits footsteps from the quaint and cobbled old town with its galleries and array of beachside eateries. Available beginning of April.

The substantial corner plot enjoys two-tiered landscaped gardens to the side and rear of the property, with the added benefit of off-street parking. Exquisite attention to detail flows throughout, with an impressive south facing, vaulted ceiling, reception room, raised dining area with exposed brick fireplace and light-filled kitchen with garden view. The split-level landing leads to a spacious master bedroom, boasting a sunny aspect, delightful Juliette balcony, walk in closet and stylish en-suite shower room. A second bedroom is equally generous, with a rustic coastal vibe and an elegant bathroom completes the first floor. The owners have made excellent use of the large third floor loft room, transforming the multi-functional space into a guest room, creating a restful haven on the top floor, with skylight scenic views.
