This newly refurbished one-bedroom freehold end-terrace offers a move-in ready option for a first-time buyer or those seeking a compact, low-maintenance home. The living room opens directly onto a private south-facing rear garden, bringing good natural light and easy outdoor access. A modern fitted kitchen includes brand-new integrated appliances (oven, microwave, dishwasher) and a contemporary bathroom completes the accommodation.
Practical benefits include allocated off-street parking, freehold tenure and no onward chain — straightforward purchase potential. The property is modest in size (circa 442 sq ft) and sits in a built era of 1967–1975 with double glazing installed before 2002 and electric storage heating, so energy performance may be below newer builds.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property is in a neighbourhood assessed as having higher crime and local deprivation, and cavity walls are shown as having no added insulation (assumed). Heating is electric storage heaters and main fuel is electricity, which can be more costly than gas. The garden and plot are small, and the house is average-sized internally — ideal for singles or couples but limited for growing families.
Location strengths include proximity to local shops, Shoebury Park, several good and outstanding-rated schools nearby, regular bus routes, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Overall this is a well-presented, compact home that suits first-time buyers wanting a turnkey purchase in a convenient location, while being realistic about local area and older-construction constraints.
