A traditional two-bedroom semi in Maybush offering a clear project for a buyer who wants to add value. The house is freehold, with practical layout: porch, hallway, open-plan lounge and kitchen/diner, ground-floor WC, and useful lean-to. Two double bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom sit on the first floor.
The property benefits from a well-kept enclosed rear garden with patio and side access, plus a wide driveway providing off-street parking for multiple vehicles — increasingly valuable in this area. Broadband and mobile signals are strong and transport links are good, with easy access to the M271/M27 and Redbridge station.
This home needs renovation and modernisation throughout, which presents scope to personalise and increase value; there is also potential to extend, subject to planning permission (STPP). Buyers should note the property sits in an area with higher crime rates and marked deprivation; while transport and local amenities are convenient, the wider neighbourhood challenges may affect suitability for some.
Overall, this is a straightforward freehold starter home or buy-to-let opportunity for someone prepared to renovate. The combination of parking, garden, and extension potential makes it a practical choice for first-time buyers or investors seeking uplift through improvement.
