A spacious two double bedroom bungalow in an excellent location close to Bishop's Stortford and Stansted, both with rail links to London and Cambridge. EPC Rating D.

Property Oracle says ..

The property is located in Start Hill, Bishop’s Stortford, which benefits from being close to several schools, including Birchanger Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Birchwood High School (also rated ‘Good’). The area also has good transport links, with several train stations within a reasonable distance, providing access to Greater Anglia lines. The proximity to Stansted Airport might be considered an advantage or disadvantage depending on individual priorities. While the provided data doesn’t offer detailed insights into local amenities, the address suggests a suburban setting.

Based on the images, the property appears to be in fair condition, though it could benefit from some modernisation and updating. The décor is dated, and some areas show signs of wear and tear, particularly the carpets. The kitchen and bathroom, while functional, are not modern and would likely require updating. The overall impression is that the property is habitable but needs some work to improve its condition.

The property includes a garden, which is a positive aspect. The garden appears to be relatively small but offers some outdoor space. The presence of a shed is also noted.

Considering the list price of £439,995, the average price in the area of £415,625, and the average price per square foot of £504, the property’s price seems reasonable, though perhaps slightly on the higher end. The property is smaller than the average size for the area (575 sqft vs 824 sqft), and its condition suggests a need for renovations which would impact the overall value. However, the inclusion of a garden might justify the price point, especially in a desirable location like Bishop’s Stortford. Further market research into comparable properties in similar conditions would provide a more definitive assessment.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
