Yarm is a popular and desirable town in North Yorkshire, known for its excellent schools, convenient amenities, and beautiful surroundings. The property’s location on Mallard Drive places it within easy reach of several highly-rated primary and secondary schools, including Conyers School, which received a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating. The proximity to Yarm town centre provides convenient access to shops, restaurants, and other local services. Train travel is also easily accessible with Yarm train station being less than a kilometre away. This contributes to a high location score.

Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in excellent condition. The interior is modern, well-maintained, and tastefully decorated. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs or renovations needed. The property presents well and is move-in ready.

The property includes a sizeable, well-maintained rear garden with a patio area and artificial turf. The garden is enclosed and offers a private outdoor space, suitable for families or those who enjoy gardening. This is a positive attribute.

The list price of £320,000 is slightly below the average price of £368,503 for the area. Considering the property’s excellent condition, desirable location, and inclusion of a garden, the list price appears to represent reasonable value. While the average price per square foot in the area is £291, the property’s size (1,160 sqft) and features justify its pricing. The comparable properties on Mallard Drive and nearby streets support this assessment. The slightly lower price point may reflect the smaller plot size compared to other properties in the area.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
