The list price of £385,000 seems reasonable considering the size (878.34 sq ft), location, and condition of the property, but not outstanding value. Nearby comparable properties show a range of prices, reflecting varying conditions and sizes. Without precise square footage data for comparables, a definitive assessment of the price per square foot is difficult, making it hard to judge definitively as exceptional value.

The property appears to be in generally reasonable condition from the provided photographs. While it is not newly renovated or updated, there is no obvious sign of major disrepair. The interior shows signs of wear and tear that are typical for a property of its age and could benefit from some modernisation to enhance its appeal and value. The kitchen and bathroom seem functional, but a refresh might improve them.

Welwyn Garden City is a desirable location in Hertfordshire, known for its good schools, transport links (with proximity to Welwyn Garden City train station), and amenities. The property’s location on Howlands places it within reasonable distance of these benefits, although it may not be in the most central or prestigious part of the town. The presence of several well-regarded primary schools within a short distance adds to its family-friendly appeal.

The property includes a garden, which is a positive aspect. However, based on the images, it is of average size and may not be exceptionally large or particularly landscaped. The relatively small size, whilst offering outdoor space, keeps it from a higher score.
