Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom house with a total area of 2,753.08 sqft and an 820 sqft plot size. It’s situated in Farnborough Village, Bromley, which benefits from being close to Farnborough Primary School (0.49km), Tubbenden Primary School (0.63km), and Newstead Wood School (0.89km). The proximity to these schools is a positive aspect for families. Additionally, Orpington train station is 1.90km away, providing convenient access to transport links. The images show the property to be in generally good condition, though some updating might enhance its appeal. The kitchen and bathroom appear well-maintained, and the living spaces are bright and spacious. The garden is a notable feature, offering outdoor space. Considering comparable properties in the area, such as those on Hilborough Way and other nearby streets, the list price of £565,000 appears to be in line with the market value, especially given the property’s size, location, and condition. While there is a range in prices for similar properties, this property’s price seems reasonable. However, a precise price per sqft comparison is difficult due to the lack of sqft data in the nearby listings.
Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
