Top tips for a Benfleet Home Buyers Survey
Benfleet is a town in Essex's Castle Point district, north of Canvey Island and is the location of The Battle of Benfleet, between the Vikings and Saxons, in 894. The railway arrived in 1855 and was a spur to house building.
Properties are quite varied with, for example, Victorian terraces in the high street, 1930s semi-detached properties in London Road, 1970s semi-detached houses in The Rundels and terraces in St Clement's Close.
New build developments include the detached houses in Kiln Road, the semi-detached houses in Romsey Close and the apartments in Woodlands, Catherine Road.

Local Tip 1 | Local Tip 2 | Local Tip 3 |
Properties in Benfleet which are built in close proximity to the East Haven Creek and water courses near it, in streets such Hall Farm Road and Fleet Road, are in areas where flood warnings and alerts are issued from time to time. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details). | Properties sometimes have issues with ground stability in certain locations in Benfleet. In a recent environmental search, taken out for a property in Grove Road, the report noted that there was a moderate potential for natural ground instability within 50m of the property. This should not be taken to mean that the property in question actually suffered/suffers from subsidence however as "active subsidence will be dependent on local conditions, such as the proximity of trees or areas where trees have been removed, which require an inspection of the site to identify the nature of the ground on which the property is built." Click to find out more about subsidence | Raised levels of noise pollution from roads in the South Benfleet area mainly centre around the main road – London Rd - A13, and of rail pollution where the railway line crosses Watlington Road. |
