Set on a quiet residential street in Stratford, this two-bedroom end-of-terrace offers a straightforward entry into East London homeownership or a compact buy-to-let opportunity. The house is freehold, chain-free and arranged over two floors with a through reception, separate kitchen, downstairs WC, two double bedrooms and a large bathroom. A private rear garden and side return add outside space and scope to extend (rear and loft subject to planning).
Practical positives include double glazing, mains gas central heating and quick access to Stratford station (Central, Jubilee, DLR, Elizabeth Line). The property is typical of early-20th-century construction with solid brick walls and character features such as a bay window — attractive for buyers seeking period charm and future renovation upside. EPC rating D and affordable council tax band C help running costs remain reasonable.
Buyers should be realistic about location and fabric. The immediate area records very high crime levels and is classed as very deprived, which may affect family buyers or some investors. The brick walls are assumed uninsulated — refurbishments such as cavity/solid-wall insulation and internal upgrades may be required to improve comfort and energy performance. Planning appetite exists for rear and loft extensions (STPP) but any structural work will add cost.
This house suits first-time buyers wanting a manageable project with room to grow, small families seeking close transport links, or investors targeting rental demand in Stratford. It’s a sensible purchase if you prioritise location, extension potential and value over a fully modernised, turn-key finish.
