This three-bedroom end-terrace in Gordons, Basildon, offers a straightforward entry into homeownership or a rental investment. The property is freehold, double-glazed and heated by a mains gas boiler and radiators, providing practical, low-running-cost basics for everyday living.
The house requires modernisation throughout: the kitchen and general interior are dated and the property shows signs of neglect typical of a 1970s build. That condition presents clear scope for refurbishment to add value — redecoration, kitchen and bathroom upgrades, and improved wall insulation would significantly modernise the home.
Set on a small plot with a modest rear garden and rear access, the layout includes lounge, open-plan kitchen/diner, three bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate ground-floor WC. Local amenities, bus links and a nearby train station make commuting and day-to-day life convenient. Schools in the area include several rated Good, making this suitable for first-time buyers with children.
Be realistic about the neighbourhood context: the area is classified as very deprived with high local crime and hampered neighbourhood indicators. For buyers seeking a project or investors targeting rental demand, the low guide price and council tax band make this a value-led opportunity; for buyers wanting a move-in-ready home, significant work will be needed.
