Summary - 102 Oakley Road, Braintree, CM7 CM7 5QS
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Chain-free three-bed needing modernisation, ideal for first-time buyers or young families..
Chain free three-bedroom semi-detached on corner plot
A three-bedroom semi-detached house on a generous corner plot in Braintree, offered chain free and ready for modernisation. The property retains mid-20th century character, with a front lounge featuring a traditional fireplace, separate dining room, kitchen with pantry and a single wet room upstairs. Double glazing and gas central heating are already installed.
This is a practical purchase for a first-time buyer or young family who want a project with clear upside. The garage, off-road parking and decent gardens provide useful outdoor and storage space; local primary schools are within walking distance and Braintree town and station are a short drive away. The plot and layout also suit modest extension or improvement works subject to necessary consents.
Important considerations: the house needs renovation and updating throughout — decor, kitchen and bathroom will require investment. There is only one bathroom (wet room) for three bedrooms and the EPC report is pending. The property dates from the 1950s–60s, so buyers should allow budget for modernisation and any service checks they deem necessary.
Practical points: freehold tenure, low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband speeds make this a convenient everyday home. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low. Viewing is recommended for buyers who value location and a property with clear refurbishment potential.
