The list price of £525,000 seems relatively reasonable, considering the location and size (1283 sq ft) of the property. However, the lack of nearby comparable properties with square footage data makes a precise price per square foot comparison difficult. The property’s need for renovation might slightly depress the price, but the location and garden size somewhat balance this out. The average house prices in nearby streets, while varied, support the price range.

The property shows its age, with dated interior decor and finishes visible in the provided photographs. While seemingly structurally sound, it requires significant modernisation and updating. The kitchen and bathroom appear functional but outdated. The overall condition is fair, but not excellent.

Mottingham is a generally desirable suburban area in South East London. Proximity to good schools (Mottingham Primary and Elmstead Wood Primary both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Southeastern rail links to London makes it attractive to families. However, it’s not a central location and may lack the amenities of more vibrant areas. The nearby streets show a range of price points, suggesting some variation in desirability within the immediate vicinity.

The property has a garden of reasonable size for the area, as indicated in the photos. It’s not expansive, but larger than many properties in this price range in similar locations. There is potential for landscaping improvements, but currently, the garden is mature and not in immaculate condition.
