Summary - 17 FOREST AVENUE CHIGWELL IG7 5BP
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Manageable family home with parking and strong local schools.
Chain free three-bedroom semi-detached house
This three-bedroom semi-detached home in Chigwell is offered chain free and presents clear scope for improvement. The property has an updated gloss kitchen with integrated appliances and French doors, a ground-floor WC and a first-floor shower room, plus off-street parking for two cars. At about 816 sq ft on a small plot, it suits buyers seeking a manageable family house with potential to modernise and personalise.
The location is one of the main strengths: within a short walk of West Hatch High School and near several well-rated primary schools, local buses and community amenities. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make the house convenient for working from home and family life in an affluent neighbourhood.
Buyers should note material renovation needs: the home is system-built (1950s–1960s) with assumed lack of wall insulation, and it requires modernisation and decorative work throughout. There is one bathroom (first-floor shower room) and a moderate council tax band. The property is freehold and has no flood risk.
Guide price £550,000–£600,000. This house will suit buyers wanting a ready-to-improve family home in a strong school catchment and well-connected area.
