Summary - 33 CHESTER ROAD LONDON E16 4NL
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Two-bedroom Victorian terrace with garden and clear renovation potential near DLR.
Freehold Victorian terraced house, 836 sq ft
This Victorian terraced house on Chester Road offers a straightforward, value-led purchase for a first-time buyer or investor. The layout includes two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a ground-floor bathroom, all within an average-sized 836 sq ft footprint. A private rear garden provides outdoor space rare for the price band. The property is freehold and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
The house requires renovation throughout, so there is clear potential to modernise and add value. Original features such as bay windows and solid-brick walls give character, but the property likely needs insulation upgrades, kitchen and bathroom refurbishment and cosmetic renewal. These works are reflected in the asking price and create scope for buyers seeking a project.
Location is a key strength: Star Lane DLR and Canning Town Jubilee/DLR connections are within easy reach, giving quick routes to Canary Wharf and central London. Local amenities and several primary and secondary schools (including an Outstanding-rated primary) are close by, supporting family and rental appeal.
Be aware of material negatives: the area records very high crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect long-term rental yield and resale for some buyers. The plot is small and the property was constructed before 1900 with assumed solid-brick walls and no known insulation — upgrading heating and fabric should be factored into budgets.
