Three double bedrooms, station-side convenience and no forward chain - 1,354 sq ft

Guide Price £325,000 - £350,000

Occupying a particularly convenient position in the heart of Rainham, this substantial three double-bedroom Dutch barn semi-detached home offers approximately 1,354 sq ft of internal accommodation, rising to almost 1,445 sq ft in total when the detached outbuilding is included.

Available with no forward chain, newly fitted carpets throughout and an impressive amount of space across three floors, this is a home with real versatility. It will appeal to families needing generous bedrooms, commuters wanting the station and High Street within walking distance, and buyers looking for a property they can personalise further over time.

The ground floor begins with a generous front reception room, measuring approximately 14ft x 13ft, with a bay window creating a bright, welcoming space for family evenings or entertaining. To the rear, the kitchen provides excellent cupboard and worktop space, with a door leading through to the shower room and the impressive conservatory.

Measuring around 14ft x 13ft, the conservatory is much more than an occasional garden room. It offers a sizeable additional living area overlooking the garden and could comfortably serve as a dining room, family room, playroom or relaxed entertaining space. Doors open directly onto the outside terrace, allowing the home to flow naturally into the garden during warmer months.

The enclosed rear garden measures approximately 25ft, designed for low-maintenance enjoyment with a paved entertaining area, raised planting sections and a detached outbuilding/shed measuring approximately 19ft. The outbuilding provides excellent storage or workshop potential and could also suit hobbies, a home gym or office space, subject to any necessary permissions.

Upstairs, the scale continues. There are three genuine double bedrooms, rather than the usual mix of doubles and smaller rooms. Bedroom two measures approximately 13ft x 12ft, bedroom three approximately 13ft x 9ft, while the top-floor principal bedroom is an exceptional space at around 14ft x 13ft maximum. The principal suite also benefits from access into the eaves and a large bathroom, offering a freestanding-style bath, fitted storage and ample room to create a private retreat away from the main family accommodation.

The property has also benefited from new carpets, giving buyers a clean and comfortable starting point from which to make the home their own.

Wakeley Road is one of Rainham’s most convenient residential locations. Rainham High Street, with its independent shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, is within comfortable walking distance. Rainham Station is only a short walk away, approximately 300 metres or around 4–5 minutes on foot, making this an excellent choice for commuters. 

From Rainham, there are direct services towards London St Pancras International and London Victoria, with services also connecting through the Thameslink network towards central London. Fastest journeys to St Pancras can be around 49–50 minutes, while London Victoria can be reached from around 52 minutes on the quickest services; buyers should always check current timetables for their preferred commute.

For families, the area is especially well placed for schooling. Wakeley Junior School is located directly on Wakeley Road, while Riverside Primary, Leigh Academy Rainham, St Margaret’s schools, Miers Court Primary, Thames View Primary, Rainham School for Girls and The Howard School are all within the wider local area.

With substantial accommodation, three proper double bedrooms, a large conservatory, generous garden, outbuilding, no forward chain and such a convenient Rainham location, this is a property that offers far more space and flexibility than first impressions suggest.
