Bright, well-laid-out three-bedroom terrace with a large west-facing garden that opens directly onto parkland. The generous kitchen/diner and separate living room give practical family space, while permit parking and a short walk to Basildon town centre and rail links add everyday convenience. Sold freehold and chain-free, it’s straightforward to move into or let out.
The house is solid but dated in places: external areas need basic maintenance and interior modernisation would unlock more value. Built in the late 1960s/early 1970s with cavity walls likely lacking insulation, the property may benefit from energy-efficiency improvements. Reported crime levels in the area are above average and the neighbourhood is classified as deprived, which buyers should weigh against the low asking price and strong transport links.
Ideal for families or investors seeking a mid-terrace with scope, the layout includes good storage, a sizeable kitchen/diner and a compact family bathroom. The small plot and low-maintenance garden suit buyers who prefer less outdoor upkeep. Viewings are recommended for anyone wanting convenient access to London transport and parkland for children.
Drawbacks are practical and factual: some exterior and garden maintenance needed, likely improvement costs for insulation/heating efficiency, and the property sits in a higher-crime, deprived local area. These factors are balanced by the no-chain sale, freehold tenure, council tax band C, and immediate access to amenities and schools.
