The property is located on Neville Road, Darlington, a residential street in the College area. The area benefits from its proximity to several schools, including Abbey Infants’ School (0.20 km), Abbey Junior School (0.32 km), and Carmel College (1.35 km), which is rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted. The location also offers convenient access to transportation links, with North Road (Darlington) and Darlington train stations within a reasonable distance. The presence of local amenities such as shops is also a positive factor influencing location desirability.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in good condition. The interior is well-maintained, with features suggesting a level of upkeep and care. There is no visible evidence of significant damage or the need for extensive repairs or renovations. The property’s exterior also appears to be in good order.

The property includes a sizable garden, as evidenced by the photos. The garden appears well-maintained, adding to the property’s overall appeal.

Considering the property’s size (1,270.25 sqft), condition, location, and inclusion of a garden, the list price of £425,000 appears slightly higher than the average price for the area (£391,287). However, the average price per sqft in the area is £284, and this property’s implied price per sqft is approximately £335. This difference may be justified by the property’s apparent good condition and the desirable location, close to well-regarded schools and transport links. The higher price may also reflect the presence of a garden, a feature not always present in properties of this size in the area. Nearby comparable properties on Neville Road itself show a range of prices, with some exceeding the list price of this property. Therefore, while slightly above average, the list price is not unreasonable in the context of the local market and the property’s characteristics.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
