Description

This extended three-bedroom semi-detached house presents a valuable opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant potential for modernization. The home includes off-street parking and a shared driveway leading to a garage, alongside a generous rear garden that extends approximately 90ft – ideal for outdoor activities or future landscaping projects. Located just 0.6 miles from Hornchurch District Line Station, the property provides excellent transport links to central London, making it suitable for commuters and families alike. Upon entering, you'll find a spacious lounge designed for relaxation or entertaining guests, complemented by an adjoining dining area and fitted kitchen that creates an inviting space for family gatherings. Notably, the ground floor boasts a functional shower room, adding versatility to the layout. Upstairs, three well-sized bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations, each benefiting from good natural light and storage possibilities. The first floor also houses a family bathroom for added convenience.
