Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom semi-detached house located in Bushey Close, Whipsnade, LU6 2LQ. It has a list price of £595,000 and is 1,249.35 sqft with a plot size of 1,549 sqft.
The property appears to be in good condition, well-maintained, and benefits from a modern kitchen and conservatory. The interior is presented well and is in good order. The garden is a particular feature, offering a good-sized lawn, mature trees, and various flowerbeds and shrubs, providing a private and pleasant outdoor space.
The property’s location in Whipsnade offers a balance between rural living and accessibility to amenities. While specific transportation links aren’t detailed, several schools are within a reasonable distance, including Lark Rise Academy (Outstanding Ofsted rating) approximately 2.79 km away. This suggests a family-friendly location.
Considering the average house price in the area is £623,311 and the average price per sqft is £415, the list price of £595,000 for this 1,249.35 sqft property seems reasonable, particularly given its good condition, garden, and proximity to well-regarded schools. The property is slightly below average price but above average sqft, making it potentially good value for money. However, the lack of detailed information on nearby transportation and the limited comparable properties with sqft data makes a definitive statement challenging.
The property appears to be a well-maintained family home with a good-sized garden in a desirable location. The list price reflects the local market conditions and the property’s features.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
