This well-presented three-bedroom detached home on Station Road sits 0.3 miles from Rainham train station, putting fast rail links and local amenities within easy walking distance. The ground floor offers an open-plan kitchen/diner and a newly built conservatory that adds flexible living space for family meals or a home workspace. A recently refurbished upstairs bathroom and a convenient downstairs WC reduce immediate maintenance needs. Outside, a low-maintenance rear garden with a timber pergola and porcelain slabs creates a private, easy-care entertaining area. Off-street parking for two cars and side access increase everyday practicality.
The house is a solid 1950s detached build with double glazing and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The property has been freshly refurbished internally and will appeal to buyers looking for a move-in-ready home with scope to personalise. The plot and internal footprint are average for the area, making this a sensible choice for families, professionals or downsizers wanting proximity to schools (several rated Good) and transport links without large garden upkeep.
Notable considerations are factual and important: the driveway concrete shows surface cracking and would benefit from cosmetic repair; the cavity walls are noted as built without insulation (assumed), so buyers should consider potential energy-efficiency improvements. The house has one main bathroom only. The small-to-average plot limits extensive rear expansion without planning consent. These points affect running costs and future improvement budgets but do not detract from the property's convenience and recent internal upgrades.
Offered freehold with fast local broadband and average local crime levels, this home balances practical daily living, low-maintenance outdoor space and excellent transport links. It suits buyers seeking a tidy, ready-to-live-in detached property close to Rainham station, with straightforward scope to improve kerb appeal or increase thermal performance over time.
