Quiet mid-20th-century mid-terrace offering two good-sized bedrooms, loft room and straightforward layout. The property is chain free and sold freehold, making it suitable for buyers who want to move quickly or take a renovation project on at their own pace.
Positioned about a 20-minute walk from Harold Wood station (Elizabeth line), this home gives reliable rail links to central London and Heathrow while road access to the A12 and M25 is convenient for drivers. The house has a front yard and access to a rear garden via a shared walkway; the garden is roughly 36–40 feet and offers scope for landscaping.
Internally the living spaces are light but dated: the kitchen and bathroom both require updating and general cosmetic work is needed throughout. There’s useful loft space for storage or a small office, and the property benefits from double glazing (installed pre-2002) and gas central heating.
The wider area is in a more challenged category and local services vary, but several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within reach. This is a pragmatic option for first-time buyers, couples or small families who want affordable entry to the area and are prepared to invest time and money to modernise the home.
