1 bed terraced house for sale

Hammonds Lane, Billericay CM11

Situated to the Great Burstead side of Billericay and just off the semi-rural Kennel Lane, this pretty 1 bedroom terrace house comes with an allocated parking bay and is situated on the popular 'Coopers Croft Development'.

It is in need of modernisation but this has been very accurately reflected in its asking price.

The accommodation briefly comprises an Entrance Porch, Lounge, Kitchen, 1st Floor Landing with a large built-in cupboard, Bedroom and Bathroom.

'Coopers Croft' was built by Countryside Homes in the early 1990's with great attention paid to the overall look of the estate, and it remains to this day a very pleasant place to live with the communal areas beautifully maintained.

Within walking distance is the Grange Road parade of shops, which includes a handy Tesco Express, Bakery, Greengrocers, a rather good fish and chip shop, 'South Green Post Office and Off-Licence', 'South Grill Charcoal & Meze' and a Hairdressers.

Open countryside is just across the road from the Estate and this part of town provides easy road access to the A127 with its M25 link a few miles along.

Billericay High Street and Railway Station is a short drive or bus journey away with Billericay Train Station being on the mainline to London Liverpool Street (35 minute journey time).

What we think


At the moment it needs everything done (windows, kitchen, bathroom, decorating, carpets, etc.) but it is just a one bedroom house, so all this work will be fairly low cost.

These properties were built with electric heating but gas is there - as they were built with fitted gas hobs in the kitchens.

In the cupboard outside the front door is a modern gas meter. Thus gas central heating could be easily installed. Allow for £4,000 - £5,000 for this.
(Although of course you can simply buy new electric storage heaters - some of these are incredibly good and very efficient to run)

Once updated, this will be a very attractive house both inside and out, and with its pleasant location/setting too, it has the makings of a super little starter home or investment.

For the Investors amongst you, we rented one of these out 'around the corner' for £1,000 per month a couple of years ago, so it should get circa £1,100 a month.
