3 bed terraced house for sale

Oulton Crescent, Barking IG11

Welcome to this beautifully restored 1930s terraced home in the heart of the Leftley Estate, Barking – a sought-after neighbourhood known for its community feel, green spaces, and excellent local schools like Barking Abbey.

This three-bedroom house is full of charm and clever upgrades. The current owners have lovingly renovated it over the last few years, creating a warm and stylish family space that blends period character with thoughtful modern touches.

Step inside and you’ll notice the rich pine floors – lovingly sanded, gap-filled, and finished with a natural wax for a soft, timeless look. The reception rooms are inviting, with bespoke bookshelves flanking the fireplaces, which have been uniquely finished for a bold yet cozy atmosphere. Ceiling fans in the lounge and master bedroom provide year-round comfort, circulating air in both summer and winter.

The kitchen is spacious and practical, leading out to a low-maintenance garden that's been carefully tended using organic, no-dig principles. There’s even a greenhouse – built to last but removable if you'd prefer more lawn space – and a stylish black-stained oak shed for your tools or bikes.

Upstairs, all three bedrooms feature custom-built birch plywood wardrobes, including a smart storage design in the box room. The walls throughout have been replastered and painted in calming greens and whites for a clean, contemporary vibe. The bathroom and separate WC were completely refurbished in late 2024, now boasting a sleek, modern finish.

Additional upgrades include a brand new Viessmann boiler and cast iron radiators, complete re-wiring (excluding the kitchen), and subtle, child-friendly cork hearths that bring warmth without sharp edges.

This home is ready to move into – full of personality, practicality, and potential. Whether you're upsizing, starting a family, or just looking for somewhere with soul, this could be the perfect fit.
