A chain-free, three-bedroom semi-detached house on Maldon Road offering compact, well-presented accommodation and both front and rear gardens. The property has been updated with uPVC double glazing, gas central heating with a combi boiler and a fitted kitchen, making it move-in ready for many buyers.
Internally the layout is traditional: lounge with a bay window, separate dining room, ground-floor kitchen, three first-floor bedrooms and a bathroom. A fixed staircase gives direct access to loft space, providing useful storage or scope for conversion subject to planning. The overall internal area is small (approximately 403 sq ft), so rooms feel compact and buyers should view to assess space.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, very low council tax (Band A) and no onward chain, which can speed completion. The location has good mobile signal and fast broadband and several nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted.
Important considerations: the area is described as very deprived with higher crime levels and an abundance of rented terraces nearby, which may affect long-term resale or tenant demand. The plot is small and the house will suit buyers looking for an affordable, modest family home or an investor prepared for an area with socioeconomic challenges. Any loft conversion or major alterations should be checked against planning requirements.
