This bay‑fronted semi‑detached house offers a practical family layout across about 1,149 sq ft, with two reception rooms, conservatory and three bedrooms. Its long, west‑facing rear garden (approx. 78 ft) will appeal to families who want outside space for children, pets and entertaining. Off‑street parking for two cars and a detached garage add useful storage and drive‑through access.
Location is a key strength: the property sits only 0.6 miles from Gidea Park Elizabeth Line station and around 0.5 miles from highly regarded Ardleigh Green schools, making commutes and school runs straightforward. The accommodation is well maintained and presented in a neutral palette, with period features such as bay windows and an exposed brick fireplace adding character.
The house is freehold and solidly constructed (likely early‑20th century). There is clear scope to increase value by modernising kitchen, bathroom and decorative finishes to current tastes. Buyers should note the home has traditional solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and largely late‑20th‑century decor, so adding wall insulation or replacing windows could improve energy performance.
Practical considerations: there is a single family bathroom plus a separate WC, and council tax is above average. Overall this is a roomy, well‑situated family house with a large garden and good transport and school links, best suited to buyers looking for solid period character with modest modernisation potential.
