Chain free freehold ownership
Extended layout offers 3 bedrooms plus dressing-room/ensuite fourth

This extended 1930s semi-detached house offers practical family space and sensible scope for improvement. The ground floor provides a through lounge, conservatory overlooking a mature rear garden and a modern kitchen with underfloor heating — useful for everyday family life. Off-street parking and an integrated garage add strong convenience for multiple cars.
Upstairs layout currently gives three bedrooms plus a dressing room/en-suite space that could serve as a fourth bedroom. The plot is a decent size for the area and the property is offered chain free on a freehold title, which simplifies moving. Local schools (including Harrow Lodge Primary and Hornchurch High) and fast broadband make the location well-suited to families and home workers.
Notable issues are presented plainly: the interior requires updating in places and the property has an EPC rating of E. The original solid brick walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating costs and future retrofit costs. The wider area records higher crime levels than average, so buyers should satisfy themselves about security and local conditions.
For buyers seeking a spacious family home with scope to modernise, this house balances useful ready features (garage, conservatory, off-street parking, gas central heating) with clear renovation potential. Chain-free status and strong local amenities make it appealing for a family planning medium-term improvement works.
