The property is located in Watkins Close, Staplehurst, Kent, a village in the Maidstone district of South East England. Staplehurst benefits from a train station providing links to London and other parts of Kent. The nearby Staplehurst School is within walking distance, although its Ofsted rating of \‘Requires Improvement\’ may be a factor for families with school-aged children. Other schools with \‘Good\’ Ofsted ratings are located slightly further away. The presence of a garden is evident from the provided photographs.
Based on the images, the property appears to be in generally good condition, although some aspects of the interior decor and fixtures might be considered dated. The kitchen and bathroom in particular show signs of age, potentially requiring modernisation. The overall condition is reasonable, but not luxurious.
The property is listed at £360,000. The average house price in the area is significantly higher at £582,208, and the average price per square foot is £353. However, the absence of square footage information for the subject property prevents a direct comparison based on price per square foot. Considering the average house price and the apparent need for some modernisation, the listed price of £360,000 could be considered relatively reasonable, particularly when compared to nearby similar properties. However, without knowing the square footage, a definitive conclusion on value for money cannot be reached.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
