The list price of £470,000 seems reasonable considering similar plots in the area listed for similar prices (between £450,000 and £570,000). Given that this is a new build plot offering the chance to design a custom property and given the positive location, the price appears competitive and in line with the market. The absence of specific square footage data for the house slightly restricts certainty. Therefore, a ⁷⁄₁₀.

Based on the provided architectural renderings, the property appears to be of high-quality construction and in excellent condition. The images showcase a modern, well-designed home. As this is a new build, the condition is expected to be excellent. However, the lack of a physical inspection limits the certainty, hence a score of 8.

Smarden is a desirable village in the Kent countryside, offering a peaceful yet accessible location. The proximity to Smarden Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) is a significant plus for families. While the commute to larger towns might require a car, the nearby train stations at Headcorn and Pluckley provide reasonable rail links. The lack of immediate shops and amenities in the immediate vicinity slightly detracts from the score, thus the ⁷⁄₁₀ rating.

The plot size, while not explicitly stated in square footage, appears substantial from the provided site plan. It offers ample space for a garden and potential landscaping features, making it attractive for those wanting outdoor space. The relatively large plot size in comparison to the surrounding development is considered, resulting in a ⁷⁄₁₀.
