This Victorian mid-terrace offers a compact, traditionally laid-out home in Braintree town centre, a short walk from the railway station with services to London. The property is freehold and chain-free, making it a straightforward purchase for buyers prepared to undertake improvement works.
Internally the house provides two reception rooms, a small kitchen, ground-floor cloakroom/bathroom and three bedrooms (one interconnecting). Period features such as a bay window and brick fireplaces remain, but the property requires renovation throughout — cosmetic and likely some fabric upgrades given the solid brick walls and older double glazing.
Practical benefits include driveway parking for two cars, small front and rear gardens and mains gas central heating. EPC rating D (64) and Council Tax Band B are positives for running costs. Note the immediate area records very high crime levels, and the property’s small footprint (approx. 790 sqft) and solid-wall construction mean buyers should budget for insulation and general modernisation.
Suitable for a first-time buyer seeking a project or an investor after a town-centre let, this home offers clear potential to add value but will need hands-on renovation and sensible budgeting for works and safety/security improvements.
