The property is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage located in Upshirebury Green, Waltham Abbey, Essex. It is listed at £775,000 and has 1,381.23 sqft of living space. The plot size is not specified.

The property appears to be in excellent condition, having undergone a recent modernization. The kitchen and bathrooms are contemporary and well-maintained. The interior is bright and airy, with modern fixtures and fittings throughout. The exterior is also well-kept, with a neat garden and attractive landscaping.

The location is desirable, situated in a quiet, rural setting while still being within a reasonable distance of local amenities and transport links. The proximity to Upshire Primary Foundation School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) is a significant positive for families. Several other schools are within a 3-4km radius. Commuting to London may require a car, given the distances to the nearest train stations.

While the average house price in the area is significantly higher (£1,147,944), the average price per sqft (£850) is lower than the implied price per sqft for this property (£560). Considering the property’s condition, location, and the presence of a garden, the list price of £775,000 appears reasonable, potentially even representing good value compared to some of the higher-priced nearby properties. However, the lack of plot size information makes a definitive statement on value difficult.

The property benefits from a sizable garden, adding to its desirability.

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