Set back in a small cul-de-sac close to Braintree town centre and station, this mid-terraced two-bedroom home offers practical, move-in-ready accommodation for first-time buyers or investors. The 18' lounge/diner flows to a timber conservatory, increasing usable living space and creating a light, flexible ground floor. The kitchen is modern with integrated oven and gas hob; a wall-mounted boiler serves gas central heating.
Outside, an unoverlooked rear garden with patio, raised lawn and a timber outbuilding provides private outdoor space, though the plot is modest in size and best suited to low-maintenance gardens. Off-street allocated parking plus visitor spaces add convenience in this residential setting. The property was built in the 1980s and has double glazing (install date unknown).
Practical considerations: the neighbourhood records above-average crime statistics, and the plot and garden are small compared with larger family homes. The house is Freehold and in Council Tax Band B, which helps running costs. Its proximity to shops, schools and good road and rail links to the A120/M11 and Chelmsford make it a pragmatic choice for commuters or buy-to-let purchasers seeking steady rental demand.
Overall, this is a compact, well-presented terrace that maximises living space through its conservatory and open-plan lounge/diner. It suits buyers prioritising location, low-maintenance outdoor space and straightforward access to transport, with some compromise on plot size and local crime levels.
