The list price of £280,000 needs to be analyzed against the local market. While comparable properties in the area are priced higher, this property requires significant renovation, impacting its immediate market value. Therefore, given that it has potential, the price is considered reasonable, not extraordinary value, however not overpriced for its area.

Based on the provided photos, the property shows signs of needing significant modernisation. While structurally sound, the interior decor, fixtures, and fittings appear dated and in need of repair. The garden also requires maintenance. This warrants a score that reflects the need for substantial improvements.

The property is situated in St. Marks, Cheltenham, a generally desirable area known for its proximity to amenities and good schools. The presence of nearby schools like Rowanfield Junior School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Cheltenham Spa railway station adds to its appeal. However, the specific location on Milton Road might not be the most prestigious part of St. Marks, hence a score of 7 rather than a higher one.

The property includes a garden, which is a positive aspect. However, the images reveal the garden is somewhat overgrown and in need of landscaping. The size of the garden is not explicitly mentioned. Considering this, a score that represents an average-sized garden needing work is provided.
