Considering the location, which is advantageous due to its proximity to schools and the New Forest, the price appears reasonable, though not exceptional value given the required renovations and lack of private outdoor space. Comparing the list price to other properties on The Wicket suggests the list price is competitive for the area but factoring in needed improvements may impact the final sale price.

While the property has some updated features, such as the bathroom, the overall condition appears dated and requires modernisation. The provided photos suggest the need for some improvements, in particular the kitchen, decor and general interior cleanliness and tidiness. There’s evidence of clutter and wear and tear throughout. Some rooms are in need of redecoration and repairs.

The property benefits from being in close proximity to highly-rated schools such as Orchard Infant and Junior Schools and Noadswood School, which are key factors for families. The proximity to the New Forest National Park adds to its appeal, offering recreational opportunities. Transportation links are also within a reasonable distance to Southampton Central Station.

The property includes access to communal gardens, but the lack of a private garden is a considerable drawback. This limited access to private outdoor space reduces the score.
