Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 3-bedroom semi-detached house located on Merrivale Road in Beacon Park, Plymouth. It benefits from being close to several primary schools, including Mayflower Academy (Outstanding Ofsted rating) and Ham Drive Nursery School and Day Care (Good Ofsted rating), both within a 0.5km radius. The proximity to these well-regarded schools is a significant positive for families. Several train stations are also within a reasonable commuting distance, offering convenient access to other parts of the region.
The property itself appears to be in good condition based on the provided images. The interior is well-presented and modern, with updated fixtures and fittings. There is evidence of recent renovations or upgrades, suggesting that the property is well-maintained. The exterior also appears to be in good order.
The property includes a garden, which is a desirable feature for many buyers. The garden appears to be of a reasonable size, offering space for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. The addition of a well-equipped garden shed/studio adds further value.
Considering the list price of £269,950, the average price in the area of £230,314, and the average price per square foot of £256, the asking price seems slightly higher than the average. However, given the property’s good condition, desirable location near good schools, and the inclusion of a garden and garden studio, the price may be justified. The lack of plot size information in the listing makes a precise per sqft comparison difficult. Further analysis of comparable properties in the immediate vicinity would be necessary to fully assess the value.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
