This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in Mansfield Gardens, Hornchurch, presents a compelling investment opportunity with some caveats. The property’s location is a major strength, with Hornchurch station and town centre within easy reach, and several good schools in the vicinity. Access to the London Underground via Hornchurch station, and several other rail services, provides good links to London and beyond. This is especially attractive to commuters and families. The property also boasts a reasonably sized garden that offers ample space for outdoor activities or potential landscaping projects.

However, the property’s interior requires significant modernization. The kitchen and bathroom appear dated and would need refurbishment, as would the interior decor and finishes throughout. Potential buyers will need to factor this renovation cost into their budget, which could range from significant to extensive, depending on the level of work undertaken. The absence of plot size information in the listing is unusual and may warrant additional questions. This could be a deliberate omission or simply an oversight. However, the images of the garden suggest a substantial enough plot.

Overall, this property presents an attractive location and a garden with renovation potential. The price appears competitive within the immediate locality, but prospective buyers must be prepared for and include a significant refurbishment budget in any offer. A thorough survey is strongly recommended prior to purchase to assess the full extent of any required works and identify any potential structural issues.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. Disclamer: This is our opition and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research.
