3 bedroom terraced house for sale

IN BRIEF

This is a rare opportunity to buy a three bedroom Victorian house with huge potential for modernisation and extension. Locate in an attractive tree-lined street in East Ham, the property sits on a wide plot, with has gated side access to the approx. 40 ft rear garden.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Located at the end of a terrace, the property has an attractive frontage, with a paved front garden and low retaining wall. The front door opens into a long hallway with a door to the ground floor living room and stairs to the first floor.

There are two main living spaces on the ground floor; a large, 24 ft long living room, and a kitchen/diner. The living room has a sunny south-facing bay window at the front and a rear window with garden views. Originally two rooms, this has flexibility to be used as a single space or to be reinstated as two rooms.

Beyond is the kitchen. Measuring 13’2” by 9’6” this has ample space for a dining table. Fitted wall and floor cabinets line two walls, accommodating integrated and fitted appliances. There are also two handy full-height built-in cupboards, a window above the sink with garden views, and a door that provides access to the side alley and rear garden.

The first floor is home to two double bedrooms, one single bedroom, and the bathroom. The main bedroom at the front of the property is a generous size and flooded with natural light thanks to two south-facing windows, one of which is a bay. The second double bedroom has garden views, and the single bedroom has an east-facing window and a large, fitted wardrobe.

The bathroom is mainly tiled and fitted with a bath, and a freestanding washbasin and WC. An obscured glass high level window provides plenty of natural light and ventilation. The landing has a bespoke cupboard and a hatch to the loft.

The rear garden, which is approximately 40 ft long has plenty of space for space for a lawn and planting beyond the paved terrace that wraps around the rear of the house and continues into the side alley. It has an open aspect and an attractive specimen tree, and could easily be transformed into a wonderful outside space.

The property is in a good condition, with gas central heating and double-glazing, and is carpeted throughout (apart from the kitchen). It would benefit greatly from updating of the fixtures, fittings, and décor to create a modern home. There’s also significant potential for extension. Neighbouring properties have extended into the loft and rear garden, and this house has the added benefit of a wider plot with a side alley that runs the length of the house.
