Description
🛏️ The Rooms
One double bedroom is available to rent from Sunday 28 September 2025 in a newly renovated terraced house in the seaside area of Westcliff-on-Sea in Southend-on-Sea. Westcliff train station is a 15-minute walk downhill with direct and regular trains running into London city centre (Fenchurch Street).
The rent is £500 per month excluding bills. The bills are council tax, electricity, gas, broadband, and TV license and are split equally between the two people living here. Single occupancy per room - no couples and over 30’s preferred as this is a mature household but this is not a deal breaker if you are a mature individual. You must be working and/or studying full-time. Deposit is one month’s rent in advance, with employer and landlord references required.
There are two bedrooms to choose from and both have a double bed, 1-2 chest of drawers, a bedside locker, clothing rail, full mirror, and one bedroom has a desk and office chair if you need to study or work from home. There is a communal bathroom on the 1st floor with an electric shower and a toilet downstairs off the kitchen.
The kitchen, on the ground floor, has a double sized electronic oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge freezer, washing machine, small dishwasher and storage space with cutlery and crockery for everyone to use. There is a nook at the back of the kitchen with a table and chairs, a couch, and sideboard for extra storage, with double doors leading out to the garden. The front living room is shared between everyone and I use the back living room as my office. Gas central heating throughout the house.
🏡 The House
There is a small garden at the back which gets lots of sunshine and has a washing line to hang out clothes to dry and a garden shed to store bicycles and other items. There is free on street parking directly in front of the house, but it is on a first come first served basis. Strictly no smoking or e-cigarettes/vaping inside or on the grounds of the house.

👥 Your Housemates
It is not a party house as it is a quiet residential area with families and retired people. The room would suit mature working professionals or postgraduate students studying at Masters or PhD level as the house is quiet during the day and has a chilled, relaxed vibe in the evenings and weekends. Everyone that lives here is respectful, kind, and we keep the house and shared spaces reasonable clean and tidy.
I have a little dog who is a 4-year-old female collie cross. She stays with me in the back living room during the day and evening as I work from home most of the time, so she does not bother anyone in the house. She is vaccinated, wormed, spayed, and toilet trained and only barks if someone comes to the front door. Otherwise, she is quiet, friendly, and well behaved.
