Set on a quiet residential street within easy walking distance of South Woodham Ferrers town centre and station, this tidy one-bedroom end-terrace offers a straightforward, low-maintenance home for a single person or couple. The ground floor delivers a naturally lit lounge, shaker-style fitted kitchen and a conservatory that extends usable living space. Outside there’s a west-facing, low-maintenance rear garden and one allocated off-street parking space.
Internally the property is presented in good condition with neutral decoration, double glazing and a modern family bathroom. The layout and 543 sq ft floor area mean the home is compact but efficiently arranged — good for first-time buyers, downsizers or those wanting a simple base near local amenities and primary schools.
Buyers should note practical limitations: the property is small, so storage and entertaining space are limited. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, which may affect home working. Local crime statistics are higher than average; prospective purchasers may want to check community safety and security measures. The home is freehold with mains gas central heating and cavity wall construction from the 1983–1990 period.
Overall this house is a low-upkeep, well-located option for someone prioritising proximity to town and transport over floor area. It offers sensible potential for minor modernisation or reconfiguration, but is not suitable for buyers needing larger family accommodation or high-spec broadband out of the box.
