Summary - 48 CHITTOCK GATE BASILDON SS14 1RL
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable freehold starter home with garden and strong connectivity.
Two double bedrooms in a compact 711 sq ft layout
A compact two-bedroom mid-terrace offering straightforward, affordable homeownership in Basildon. The home is freehold with gas central heating, double glazing and an efficient 711 sq ft layout that suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers seeking a manageable property with garden space.
Inside is a bright living room, a fitted kitchen with dining area and direct access to a small rear garden — good for morning coffee or light gardening. The two first-floor bedrooms are well proportioned for the size, and the bathroom is fitted with contemporary-style fixtures. Broadband and mobile signal are strong here, which suits home working and streaming.
The house dates from the 1950s–60s and shows typical mid‑century construction; the exterior pebble-dash cladding and front path may need minor maintenance. The plot is small and rooms are average-sized, so this will suit buyers who prioritise location and price over expansive living space. There is no flood risk and council tax is low, which helps running costs.
Be candid about the neighbourhood: the area scores as very deprived with higher-than-average crime levels. For buyers seeking value, this property provides an affordable entry point with scope to modernise and add value, but plan for ongoing maintenance and sensible security measures.
