This three-bedroom Edwardian terrace on St. Marys Road offers a straightforward family layout across three floors, including a cellar and garden. The property is chain free and sits 0.6–0.7 miles from Seven Kings and Ilford stations, providing fast links into Stratford, Liverpool Street and beyond. Rooms are moderate in size and the bay-windowed facade retains period character.
The house presents clear potential for improvement: solid brick construction likely lacks wall insulation and some updating will be needed to modernise heating, electrics and finishes. There is one bathroom and on-street permit parking only, so prospective buyers should allow for practicality rather than immediate luxury. Tenure is unknown and should be confirmed prior to exchange.
For families, the location is a genuine strength — several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby, plus local shops, community facilities and places of worship. The small garden and cellar add useful storage and outside space, while the affordable council tax band helps running costs.
Buyers seeking a value-driven purchase or light renovation project will find this home attractive: scope to refresh interiors, improve insulation and reconfigure spaces if desired. However, the property sits in a higher-crime, more deprived area, so buyers should weigh local conditions alongside the transport and school advantages.
