The Becontree estate, built in the interwar years, provides much of the housing in the borough, covering a 4 square mile patch, with properties holding RM8, RM9 and RM10 postcodes. The towns of Barking and Dagenham are also home to rows of attractive terraced houses, as well as flats, bungalows and semi-detached properties, offering a variety of housing options.
