This 2-bedroom end-of-terrace offers a practical first home with strong commuter links and generous outdoor space. The rear extension creates an open-plan living and dining arrangement, and the kitchen includes a skylight and integrated appliances for everyday convenience. An unusually long private garden includes a substantial summer house, and the wide driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles.
The property is offered freehold and occupies about 781 sq ft across two floors — compact but well laid out for couples or first-time buyers who need space to grow. Becontree and Dagenham Heathway stations are within easy reach, giving direct District line access into the city; local schools are rated Good and everyday amenities are nearby.
Key practical points to note: the EPC is D and the house was constructed 1930–49 with solid brick walls that appear uninsulated, so heating costs may be higher than in modern builds. The area records higher crime levels and significant social deprivation, which could affect resale or rental demand. Council tax band is C. Overall, this house suits buyers seeking a ready-to-live-in home with scope to improve energy efficiency and add value over time.
