This three-bedroom terraced house in Wharfedale Gardens, Thornton Heath, is listed at £525,000. The property’s location is its strongest asset, with relatively close proximity to several well-regarded schools (Gonville Academy, Winterbourne Boys’ Academy, Winterbourne Junior Girls’ School), and also to several railway stations, providing reasonable links into central London and other parts of the south. This makes it particularly attractive to families or commuters.

However, the property is in need of considerable modernisation. The images reveal dated decor, including carpets, wallpaper, kitchen units, and bathrooms. Potential buyers should budget for significant renovation costs, impacting the overall value proposition. The presence of a garden, although appearing in need of some tidying, adds to the property’s appeal, providing outdoor space for relaxation and potential expansion.

While comparable properties are listed in the area, the absence of square footage data on these properties makes direct comparison challenging. Considering the condition and the need for renovation, the £525,000 asking price appears on the higher side; However, the location and potential of the property could justify the price to some buyers willing to undertake refurbishment.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
