This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Chalky Bank Road is a practical family home in a quiet Rainham street, offered chain-free for a straightforward move. The layout is traditional and usable: lounge, separate dining room with French doors to the rear garden, fitted kitchen and a generous single garage with driveway parking. The rear garden is approximately 50 x 30 ft, mainly lawn with mature shrubs — a good outdoor space for children and entertaining.
Location is a key strength: the property is within walking distance of Rainham station and the local shopping precinct, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for home-working or commuters. Built in the 1930s–40s and set in an established, affluent suburb, the house sits in a moderate council tax band and carries an EPC rating of D.
Practical buyers should note the house is largely period in style and will suit those happy to refresh or modernise to personal taste. There is a single family bathroom and the property retains older fittings in places; an updated kitchen or bathroom and cosmetic refurbishment would add value. No flooding risk and the home is freehold, which simplifies ownership.
Overall this home will appeal to families and first-time buyers seeking space, parking and easy transport links, or buyers looking for a solid period property with scope to improve for long-term gain. The chain-free position and decent plot size make it a pragmatic purchase with clear potential.
