My great grandfather owned a bungalow in Jaywick in the 1930s, so many wonderful memories have been passed down through the family, I hope Jaywick can return to it's former splendour 💕

[@Nonegiven14582]

When people like your grandfather died. The properties often ended up in the hands of slum landlords. And the town was populated by benefit tenants.

[@tracybooth4288]

@Nonegiven14582 yeah unfortunately that was the problem, I have checked on the former family bungalow on Google maps, and it remains a lovely home with some of the garden features from when it was my great grandfathers still in place, so thankfully it didn't become dilapidated :)

But as normal they never show further down, with many owners spending lots of money on there properties. just about every tv programme or youtuber channel never shows further down, or round the back, its always the first and worst parts - makes there story better i guess. check some current houses for sale in Brooklands Jaywick to see my point

Hopefully as looks quite quaint just been allowed to get run down it's a shame

[@ianburit3705]

@@allylou5151 Actually if you research lots HAS been done over the last say 10 years, all the side roads underwent a 2 year programme bringing them up to modern road designs along with modern road drainage, then the "Insulating Jaywick" group insulated those who wished it, 8 inches of exteriour insulation finished with sun reflection white polar stone chip, old storage heaters ripped out, new slimline rads in each rooom powered by high tech AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMP hot water and heating systems, modern hot tanks old fashioned cold loft tanks taken out, plus new double glazed windows and very deep roof and i got underfloor insulation also..

Sold it all up, bought into Jaywick, was a small bungalow on 2 1/2 plots, we had it extended, eventually ended up with a patio, a grandkids fenced off garden, a 26 foot long car port for my landrovers behind a gated entrance in the next road..

I recall seeing something somewhere that Jaywick was the victim of NIMBY-ism from neighbouring areas thus denying them facilities. It eventually became run down and a place where people were effectively "dumped" because it was cheap. I am so happy to see that there is some life being injected into the area - not surprising really as a nice location on the Essex Coast with house and land prices such as they are would never ever remain cheap for long - the seaside will always attract people and bring in speculation - it is I think how Jaywick started.

[@ianburit3705]

Just look on rightmove house sales for CO152JZ for local prices, yes some are ex rental but lots are nice owned properties with prices rising fast at last. The beach front walkway shown has nice sized bungalows for well over £200.000 while ex rentals in the worst part of brooklands go for £50.000 with lots needing work before the buy to let landlords buy them..You pays your money and takes your pick as always.

Saw people sitting on door steps stoned, broken windows and run down homes. I had read about Jaywick a year ago as to how it became this way. I really don't know how they'll ever change it.
