Practical three-bed with driveway and garage, 0.9 miles from Elm Park station.
Freehold three-bedroom semi-detached home, mid-20th century build
This extended three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a practical first home in a central Rainham location. The ground floor benefits from a large open-plan lounge/diner and a separate bay-front reception, while the kitchen is a modern, medium-sized workspace. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, making the layout well-suited to couples or small families.
Outside provides useful vehicle space — a wide block-paved driveway to the front and a long side drive to a detached garage at the rear. The rear/side garden is small-to-average in size and manageable for low-maintenance outdoor space. Elm Park Station is about 0.9 miles away, and local shops are within walking distance, adding everyday convenience.
Construction dates from the mid-20th century (1950s–1960s); the home appears maintained externally but may need internal updating in places. Walls are cavity as built with no confirmed insulation, and the property uses mains gas boiler and radiators. Prospective buyers should note planning would be required for any extension despite apparent scope to extend to the side or rear.
Important practical points: this is a freehold property with moderate council tax and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Crime levels are above average for the area; that factor, plus the small plot and likely internal refresh, should be weighed against the property’s accessibility and off-street parking/garage benefits.
