Over recent weeks we have shown you many of the most expensive houses in and around Epping Forest, but what is the cheapest on the market?

Currently advertised on Zoopla through The Good Estate Agent with a guide price of £275,000, this home in Colebrook Lane, Loughton, may be the answer.

The blurb says it is surrounded by green open spaces, and is ideally located for Davenant Foundation School and within the catchment of Hereward Green Primary and Debden Park High - though you might want another bedroom if you are planning to have a family.

There may well be bigger (and more expensive) flats, but if you insist on a front door that opens onto the street, stairs and a garden you don't have to share, this is what your money will buy you.

For starters, here's that front door.

It's not much, but it's a house, with all the things that set it apart from a flat.
