This chain-free three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a practical, modern layout aimed at first-time buyers looking for space and commuter convenience. The ground floor open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area creates a sociable living space, with a handy ground-floor WC/utility and a low-maintenance rear garden for easy upkeep. Off-street parking on a generous driveway adds everyday convenience.
The property is freehold and approximately 895 sq ft, constructed in the late 1960s–1970s. It benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and transport links towards Basildon town centre and the C2C mainline make it a strong option for those who travel to work. Nearby primary and secondary schools have Good Ofsted ratings, which will appeal to buyers with young families.
Buyers should be aware of clear areas for improvement: heating is by electric room heaters and there is no confirmed central heating system, so upgrading will be necessary for long-term comfort and efficiency. The walls are system-built with no known insulation, and the glazing install date is unknown; improving insulation and heating will likely be needed and will reduce running costs. The property sits in an area with very high crime levels and significant local deprivation, which buyers should factor into their decision.
Overall, the house is move-in ready in terms of presentation and layout but offers potential to add value through energy-efficiency upgrades and modern heating. It suits a pragmatic buyer seeking a commuter-friendly, affordable entry onto the property ladder who is prepared to budget for targeted improvements.
