This chain-free, two-bedroom mid-terraced house offers a practical starter home or rental opportunity in central Basildon. The property sits on a small plot with a sizable rear garden and rear access, giving outdoor space unusual for a town-centre terrace.
Inside, a spacious lounge/diner and a functional kitchen provide flexible living space across 744 sq ft. Two double bedrooms and a family bathroom occupy the first floor. The home benefits from double glazing updated after 2002 and mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators.
The house requires some maintenance and cosmetic updating — the exterior and interior show dated finishes and will benefit from modernisation. On-street permit parking only; no private driveway. The area is classified as deprived with above-average crime statistics, which may affect long-term resale dynamics and tenant demand.
Strong practical positives include freehold tenure, chain-free sale, good local transport links (C2C station nearby), and several well-rated primary and secondary schools within reach. Investors and first-time buyers comfortable with light renovation will find potential in the layout and rear garden for value enhancement.
