Property Oracle says ..

The property is located in Old School Close, Beckenham, BR3 4PQ. It\’s a terraced house with two bedrooms and one bathroom, and a total area of 694 sqft. The asking price is £475,000.

The property is situated in the Clock House area of Beckenham, Bromley. The area benefits from relatively close proximity to several Southeastern train stations including Kent House (0.58km), Clock House (0.66km), and Elmers End (1.02km), providing convenient access to central London and other parts of Kent. There are also several primary schools within a short distance, such as Churchfields Primary School (0.17km), Harris Primary Academy Kent House (0.62km), and Alexandra Infant School (0.68km). The presence of well-regarded schools like Harris Primary Academy Kent House (rated Outstanding by Ofsted) is a positive factor for families.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in good condition. The interior is modern and well-maintained, with a recently updated kitchen and bathroom. The decor is contemporary, and the flooring appears to be new. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs or renovations required. The exterior of the property is also in good condition. The garden is a reasonable size for a terraced house in this area and is well-maintained.

The average house price in the area is £554,426, significantly higher than the asking price of this property. The average price per square foot is £500, while this property is listed at a lower price per sqft. Considering its good condition, convenient location, and the inclusion of a garden, the asking price of £475,000 appears to be relatively reasonable, potentially representing good value for money compared to other properties in the area. However, the lack of plot size information in square feet makes a definitive statement difficult. The nearby comparable properties also lack sqft information, making a precise comparison challenging.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
