The asking price of £280,000 seems reasonable considering the location, size (1000 sqft), and number of bedrooms (3). Comparable terraced properties on Notley Road have sold for similar prices, although prices range widely within the area. While the property needs some updating, the convenient location and potential for future improvement makes the price competitive in the current market.

The property appears to be habitable and reasonably well-maintained, but shows signs of needing some modernisation. While the bathroom has been updated, other rooms display older décor and fittings that might require upgrading to meet modern standards. The overall condition is fair, neither needing significant repairs nor being in pristine condition.

The property benefits from being close to Braintree train station (0.68km), providing convenient access to London Liverpool Street. The proximity to several schools, including St Francis Catholic Primary School and John Ray Junior/Infant Schools, adds to its family-friendly appeal. While Notley High School has a ‘Serious Weaknesses’ Ofsted rating, the presence of other well-rated schools nearby mitigates this somewhat. The town centre’s amenities are also within walking distance.

The property has a small, manageable rear garden that offers some outdoor space. However, the plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft, which suggests a limited amount of land, not suitable for extensive landscaping or large-scale extensions.
