Period Victorian features: bay windows, high ceilings, decorative detailing
Off-street parking and small rear garden; convenient for Barking Park
Chain-free freehold sale — quicker completion potential
Needs full renovation and modernisation throughout; value-add opportunity
Older double glazing and likely uninsulated solid brick walls
Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband; suitable for home working
Area: higher-than-average crime and local deprivation — factor in risk
This spacious Victorian mid-terrace offers substantial living space across generous rooms and high ceilings, ideal for a growing family or a buyer seeking value-add. The large kitchen/dining area and bay-fronted reception rooms give scope for modern living while retaining period character. Sold freehold and chain-free, it's ready for a buyer to renovate and personalise.
Practical benefits include off-street parking, a rear garden and good transport links — Barking Station and the town centre are within walking distance, and Barking Park is nearby. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, useful for home working.
The house does require renovation: double glazing is older, the solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, and the property needs updating throughout. Crime levels in the area are above average and the wider neighbourhood scores as deprived, which are important considerations for families and investors.
For buyers willing to invest in improvements, there is clear potential to add value given the large footprint (approximately 1,755 sq ft), five reception/bedroom-sized rooms and prominent period features. Verify all dimensions, services and consents before purchase.
