This mid-terrace three-bedroom home on Harvey Street is offered chain-free and suits families or first-time buyers seeking a compact, editable house in central Halstead. The property benefits from a south-facing rear garden and off-street driveway parking for two large cars — useful for everyday family life and visitors. A relatively recent boiler (installed within the last five years) and double glazing provide practical, efficient heating and insulation.
Internally the layout is traditional with five rooms across about 770 sq ft. Two bedrooms are comfortable doubles and there is a family bathroom on the first floor. The kitchen/diner and living room create a straightforward, functional ground-floor flow. The rear garden is private, receives good sun and includes a large shed; there is also potential to build a garage subject to planning consent (STP).
The house is described as needing renovation/finishing in places — cosmetic works and some updating are required to complete improvements. Crime levels in the area are above average, so buyers should factor security measures into budgets. Broadband and mobile signals are average; local schools and shops are within easy reach, and nearby towns such as Colchester and Chelmsford are accessible by car.
Overall this freehold property offers a reasonable plot and parking rare for central terraces, plus scope to add value through sensible refurbishment or by pursuing garage planning. It will suit buyers prepared to carry out works to personalise the home and benefit from chain-free completion.
