A compact two-bedroom end-of-terrace, offered chain free and freehold, in Rainham Village with quick walking access to Rainham station. The property sits on a very small plot and benefits from a private rear garden — a rare outdoor space for this size of home.
The interior totals about 528 sq ft and includes a cosy lounge, ground-floor bathroom and kitchen, plus two first-floor bedrooms. The house has original solid-brick construction with double glazing (installation date unknown) and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. It has character and clear scope for improvement, making it suitable for a first-time buyer wanting to personalise a home or an investor seeking refurbishment potential.
Material points to note: the property needs modernisation throughout, the roof and exterior are dated and internal finishes are tired. Walls are likely uninsulated (as-built solid brick), so plan for energy-improving work. The immediate area is classified as deprived with higher local crime levels, which buyers should weigh against the strong commuter links and local amenities.
Local conveniences are excellent: village shops, a large Tesco and good primary and secondary schools are within easy reach. There is no flood risk recorded. For buyers prepared to renovate, this offers affordable entry into a convenient commuter location with clear upside after updating.
