This two-bedroom Victorian terrace sits within easy walking distance of Romford town centre and the Elizabeth Line, offering a practical first home with strong transport links. Period details such as cast-iron fireplaces and picture rails give the cottage character, while two reception rooms provide flexible living space for everyday life and entertaining.
Outdoor space is a standout: a rear garden in excess of 110ft with a substantial three-section outbuilding creates useful workspace, a home office or potential holiday-let annex (subject to permissions). Off-street parking via a dropped curb adds everyday convenience in this central location.
The property is compact at about 560 sq ft and has a single bathroom, so it suits buyers prioritising location and character over generous internal floorspace. Construction is traditional solid brick with assumed lack of wall insulation; glazing age is unknown and the current EPC is D. These are practical factors to consider if you plan energy upgrades or long-term improvement works.
Local amenities, several well-rated schools nearby and fast broadband make this a sensible choice for first-time buyers wanting a connected, characterful home with clear potential to add value through targeted improvements.
