About this home

This extended three bedroom semi detached home is in a popular part of Lee Chapel South, directly opposite Lee Chapel Primary School, which was rated Outstanding at its latest full Ofsted inspection in 2023.

The location makes day to day life convenient, with Basildon Hospital and the town centre within walking distance, and both Basildon and Laindon railway stations nearby. Inside, the rear and side extensions have created three reception rooms that flow into one another, offering plenty of flexibility for family time, dining, working from home or having friends over. A separate kitchen, entrance porch and ground floor WC complete the downstairs accommodation. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The garden is modest and mostly paved, so it offers a useful outdoor area without a large lawn to maintain. The property measures approximately 111 sq m (1,195 sq ft) overall.

Affordability At £1,950 pcm, the annual rent is £23,400. Using an indicative referencing benchmark of 30 times the monthly rent, applicants would need a combined gross income of approximately £58,500 per year, or £4,875 per month. Joint applicants may combine their income. Final eligibility is subject to the referencing provider’s assessment and accepted income evidence.

Holding Deposit A one week holding deposit of £450 is required to reserve the property while referencing and pre tenancy checks are completed. The usual holding period is 15 calendar days unless another period is agreed in writing. The deposit is refundable subject to legal requirements and, if the tenancy proceeds, may be put towards the rent or tenancy deposit with the tenant’s agreement. If required, the maximum permitted tenancy deposit at this rent is £2,250.
