This mid-1930s bay-fronted house on Lyndhurst Gardens offers practical family accommodation in a well-connected part of Barking. The property is freehold and extended to provide a long through lounge, separate dining area, ground-floor WC and a modest rear garden — useful everyday spaces for family life.
Location is a clear strength: Upney station and frequent bus routes are close by, and several well-regarded local schools (including an Outstanding secondary) are within easy reach. The layout and size (around 926 sq ft) suit a growing family or a buy-to-let investor seeking reliable rental demand in a major conurbation.
The house is dated and will benefit from modernisation throughout. The exterior and some internal fittings appear tired; walls are likely uninsulated and the double glazing was installed before 2002. There is one shower room only and the plot is small, so buyers should budget for updating, insulation and possible layout changes to suit contemporary family needs.
Practical factors to note: broadband and mobile signal are strong, mains gas central heating is installed, flooding risk is low and the property is offered with a moderate council tax band. Prospective purchasers should commission a survey and check services before committing.
