The asking price of £425,000 seems relatively reasonable considering comparable properties in the area. The lack of precise square footage data and information on plot size for nearby properties makes a completely precise comparison difficult. However, similar-sized detached houses in the locality appear to be on the market for comparable prices, although a full assessment of the property’s value would require a professional valuation taking into account the need for modernisation.

The property shows signs of its age and requires some modernisation. While structurally sound, the interior decor and finishes are dated. The kitchen and bathrooms, in particular, seem to need updating, however the building itself looks to be in good structural condition and does not require major renovation works.

The property is situated in Hextable, Sevenoaks, which benefits from good proximity to local amenities such as schools (Hextable Primary School is within walking distance) and transport links (Swanley station is approximately 2.21km away). While not in a central Sevenoaks location, it’s a reasonably convenient residential area. The proximity to good schools adds value for families.

The property appears to have a sizeable garden, which is a notable feature, especially in comparison to other properties of this type in the area. Whilst the exact size isn’t specified, it provides outdoor space and could potentially offer scope for expansion (subject to planning permission).
