Chain-free Victorian terrace offering two double bedrooms and 713 sq ft of living space — a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer. The house blends period features such as a bay window with a practical open-plan kitchen/diner and separate living room, creating a comfortable family layout. Double glazing and mains gas central heating are already installed.
The property sits close to Abbey Wood transport links, including the Elizabeth Line and DLR, making commutes easy. Local schools include several Ofsted-rated Good options and an Outstanding primary nearby, useful for young families. A small private garden provides outdoor space for children or potted gardening.
The home does require maintenance and modernisation in places: the exterior and some internal areas are dated and described as unkept, and the original solid brick walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation. The plot is small and the local area shows higher crime rates and relative deprivation, which buyers should consider alongside the affordable council tax and freehold tenure.
Overall, this is a competitively priced, chain-free Victorian mid-terrace with clear scope to add value through cosmetic updating and insulation improvements. It suits first-time buyers seeking a commuter-friendly base or buyers prepared to invest modestly to modernise and increase long-term value.
