Property Oracle says ..
This five-bedroom detached house in Caterham, Surrey, presents a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a family home in a desirable location. Situated in the Queens Park locality and near good schools, such as Hillcroft Primary and De Stafford School, it is well-positioned for families. The proximity to Caterham train station offers convenient commuting links. While the property boasts Edwardian charm and a garden, as highlighted by the listing agent, the photographs reveal the interior requires modernisation and refurbishment. The kitchen and bathrooms look dated, and other aspects of the interior could be considered tired and requiring updating. The property’s size (1,692 sq ft) is a notable feature. While the list price of £800,000 necessitates careful consideration given its need for refurbishment, its location and the number of bedrooms could attract family buyers looking to create a home according to their preferences. Overall, it appears to be a solid investment, but potential buyers should budget for renovation costs. Additional information on the plot size would improve the overall assessment.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
