A practical three-bedroom end-of-terrace offered freehold in Basildon, suited to first-time buyers or buyers seeking a value refurbishment. The house sits near parkland and has good transport links to the A127/A13, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for working from home. Local primary and secondary schools have strong Ofsted outcomes, and council tax is low, reducing monthly running costs.
The property is a 1950s–1960s build with double glazing (unknown install date) and mains gas boiler with radiators. Rooms are average size across approximately 898 sq ft, offering a living room, kitchen/diner, three bedrooms and one bathroom. The plot is small but manageable, and the layout is traditional and straightforward to adapt.
Notable negatives are material and location-related: the area is classified as very deprived with high local crime rates, and the neighbourhood profile may concern some buyers. The house shows signs of dated interior finishes and will likely need modernization throughout. Walls are cavity with no confirmed insulation, so buyers should budget for energy-efficiency improvements. The compact hallway and some low ceiling areas reduce perceived space.
For buyers prepared to invest in updating, this property offers an affordable entry into a well-connected part of Basildon with clear scope to add value through refurbishment, insulation upgrades and interior reconfiguration.
