A Victorian mid-terrace with genuine character and a good-sized rear garden, offered freehold. The house has two double bedrooms, separate reception rooms and a straightforward layout that suits first-time buyers, downsizers or buy-to-let purchasers looking for refurbishment potential.
The property requires modernisation: internal decor is dated, the solid brick walls likely lack insulation, and heating is by electric storage heaters which can be costly. Double glazing is in place but install date is unknown, so buyers should budget for upgrades and energy-efficiency work.
Location is practical — within easy reach of Braintree town centre, local shops, bus routes and schools. Broadband speeds are fast and the plot size gives scope to improve outdoor space or extend subject to consents. Note the local area records very high crime levels; check crime maps and consider security improvements.
This home presents clear value for someone prepared to invest time and money. For investors, the layout is straightforward to convert into a rentable two-bedroom; for owner-occupiers, renovating will unlock comfort and running-cost savings.
