The listing price of £850,000 seems relatively reasonable considering the location and the size of the house (2017 sqft). However, the need for modernisation works will need to be factored into the decision. The nearby property prices in the same street (£600,000-£1,240,000) show considerable variation depending on their updated state. Given this range, and the condition of the property the price is towards the lower end of this, making it a relatively competitive price point but not overly great value.

While the property is habitable, several images reveal that it is in need of some updating and modernisation. The decor is dated, carpets appear worn in places, and some rooms show signs of being cluttered or in need of a refresh. The kitchen and bathrooms, although functional, look to be the original fixtures and fittings which are outdated, bringing the condition score down.

Shenfield is a highly desirable location in Essex, known for its excellent schools, convenient transport links (Shenfield station is less than a kilometer away, providing direct access to London Liverpool Street), and proximity to amenities. The property’s location on Chelmsford Road adds to its appeal, as this road is often considered a prime residential area in Shenfield. The presence of good schools within walking distance significantly boosts its family appeal.

The property appears to have a reasonably sized garden, larger than many properties in the area that are similarly priced. This provides good outdoor space, impacting positively on the score. More detail would be needed on the specific size and usability of the land to give it a higher score.
