Description
This spacious three-bedroom, 1930s-built bay-fronted family home exudes potential for extension and is situated in a highly convenient location directly off Longbridge Road, close to both Upney and Barking Stations. The property is characterized by its generous living space and classic architectural features typical of the era.
On the first floor, you will find three well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering ample space and natural light. The family bathroom is also located on this floor, along with a spacious landing that presents an excellent opportunity for a loft conversion, adding even more living space if desired.
The ground floor of the home comprises two bright and airy reception rooms, perfect for family gatherings and entertaining guests. The kitchen, while functional, offers tremendous potential for a six-meter extension, similar to those carried out by neighbouring properties, which could significantly enhance the living space and value of the home.
Externally, the property features an approximate 55-foot rear garden, providing a wonderful outdoor space for relaxation and play. At the front, there is off-street parking, adding to the convenience for residents.
The overall condition of the property is clean and tidy, making it an ideal option for a family looking to move quickly, especially as it is being sold with no onward chain. The location is particularly prime, with easy access to Barking town centre, Barking Park, Eastbury Community School, and Barking Abbey School. Transport links are excellent, with Upney Station and Barking’s mainline station nearby, offering direct access to the City of London in just 14 minutes and to Central London as a whole.
This home is a perfect blend of potential and convenience, making it an attractive proposition for families seeking a comfortable and well-located residence with the opportunity to extend and personalize it to their tastes.
