Property Oracle says ..
Lyminge, a village in Kent, boasts a strong community spirit and is well-regarded for its peaceful atmosphere. The property’s proximity to Lyminge Church of England Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) is a significant advantage for families. Several other primary schools with ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted ratings are within a reasonable distance, offering diverse educational options. The nearby railway stations at Sandling, Westenhanger, and Folkestone West provide convenient access to broader transportation networks. While the property itself appears to be in generally good condition based on the photos, some minor updating or cosmetic improvements could enhance its appeal. The property’s size of 685 sqft is considerably smaller than the average for the area (1,166 sqft). The plot size of 585 sqft suggests a small garden, which is a positive feature in a village setting. Considering the average price per sqft in the area (£405) and the property’s smaller size and condition, the list price of £139,995 seems relatively reasonable, although further comparative analysis of similar properties in the immediate vicinity would be beneficial to confirm this. The lack of detailed information on comparable properties in the immediate area makes a definitive assessment of price challenging.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
