The listed price of £325,000 seems relatively reasonable given the location, proximity to schools and amenities, and the size of the property (1,277.89 sq ft). While the property would benefit from modernization, comparing to similar properties on Plume Avenue (ranging from £220,000 to £350,000), the price falls within the expected range for the area. A lack of definitive sqft information for local comparables makes this a difficult analysis, but ultimately the pricing looks fair.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be in fair to average condition. While the house is structurally sound, there is some evidence of cosmetic updates that are needed. The kitchen and bathrooms are dated and would benefit from refurbishment to meet contemporary standards. There are some features of the house such as the conservatory which show positive updates. Overall, it doesn’t require extensive repairs but modernisation would enhance its value and appeal.

The property is located in Prettygate, Colchester, which benefits from proximity to good primary and secondary schools (Prettygate Junior and Infant Schools, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and is relatively close to Colchester town centre with its amenities and transport links. While not directly on top-rated transport routes, the train station is reasonably accessible (3.61 km to Colchester station), making it a convenient location for families and commuters. The presence of other nearby amenities further enhances its desirability.

The property includes a garden, which is a plus point. The photos reveal a reasonably sized paved area and a small garden with some established plants. While not spacious, it is adequate for a family home. The presence of a garage and off road parking also add positively to the overall land offering.
