This chain-free two-bedroom terraced house offers an approachable entry to homeownership in Grays. The property combines period character with modern updates: a bay-front living room, wooden floors and a practical galley kitchen. Off-street parking for two cars and a south-facing private patio with adjoining communal gardens add usable outdoor space.
At about 717 sq ft, the layout suits a first-time buyer or small family seeking a manageable home. Gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C provide reasonable running efficiency. The property is within walking distance of Grays mainline station (approximately 1.4 miles) and benefits from easy access to the A13/M25, local schools rated Good, shops and bus links.
Buyers should note the house was built in the 1930s–1940s with solid brick walls and likely no cavity insulation; adding wall insulation could be beneficial. The second bedroom is compact and the bathroom is on the first floor, which may affect some household layouts. The double glazing install date is unknown, and while the home is generally well-maintained, targeted improvements could increase comfort and value.
Overall this property presents a straightforward, characterful purchase with sensible transport links and outdoor space, especially appealing to first-time buyers wanting scope to personalise and improve energy performance.
