Summary - 36 HURST ROAD ERITH DA8 3EN
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Ready starter home near shops and strong primary schools.
Two double bedrooms and first-floor bathroom
A compact Victorian mid-terrace offering two double bedrooms and an open-plan lounge/diner, well presented throughout. The property sits on a small plot with a gated forecourt and a long, narrow rear garden with a shed and paved patio — typical terrace proportions but usable outdoor space. Benefitting from double glazing and mains gas central heating, the house is freehold and ready for immediate occupation or straightforward letting.
The location suits first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors: short walks to Northumberland Heath parade amenities, good primary schools nearby (including two Outstanding primaries), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Erith town centre and riverside amenities are within reach, offering growing convenience and local regeneration benefits.
Notable drawbacks are factual and material: the area records higher crime levels and sits within a deprived local economy; this may affect insurance and future resale values. The property’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so buyers should budget for potential thermal upgrades if desired. Leigh Academy’s current Ofsted Inadequate rating may be relevant for families with secondary-school-age children.
Overall this is a straightforward Victorian terrace that balances manageable upkeep with good local amenities and rental potential. Buyers seeking a small family home or a rental asset will find clear positives here, while those sensitive to area-wide issues or wanting large external space should note the limitations.
