Large extended two-bedroom house with modern kitchen and private garden, near Becontree station.
Extended two-bedroom terrace with generous overall floor area
This extended mid-20th-century terraced house offers roomy accommodation across multiple levels, combining practical living with a modern kitchen/dining space. The open-plan 17'10" x 10'5" kitchen and the larger reception provide flexible family living, while the private rear garden with raised decking gives a low-maintenance outdoor area. The property is freehold, gas-heated, double-glazed and has an EPC rating of C.
The house sits within easy reach of Becontree (District line) station for direct city access and is close to several Ofsted-rated good schools, making it suitable for families and commuters. At approximately 1,163 sq ft overall, the interior feels larger than many two-bedroom terraced homes; bedroom sizes are generous and the rear extension creates valuable extra living space.
Buyers should note material local factors plainly: the wider area has higher than average crime and is relatively deprived, which may affect resale and insurance costs. The plot is small and the property has cavity walls with no confirmed insulation upgrade, so thermal improvements and lower-energy investments could be worth planning.
Practical details likely to matter: there is a single first-floor bathroom, mains gas central heating via a boiler and radiators, and the property was constructed in the 1950s–1960s. For purchasers wanting a larger family home or higher-spec finishes, this house offers scope to modernise further while benefiting from its size and transport links.
