While the provided list price of £280,000 appears reasonable considering the size (1076.39 sqft) and recent refurbishment, the lack of comparable property data in terms of price per square foot prevents a precise valuation. The surrounding property prices show a wide range, but most are significantly higher and lack adequate details for comparison. The apartment’s share of freehold status should also be considered.

Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in good condition. The recently refurbished interior looks modern and well-maintained, with updated fixtures and finishes. The kitchen and bathrooms are particularly noteworthy. However, the lack of exterior shots beyond the main building makes it impossible to ascertain the condition of everything. Some minor finishing touches might be needed, preventing a perfect score.

The property is situated in Little Wymondley, a village offering a balance of rural tranquility and convenient access to Hitchin town. The proximity to good schools like Wymondley Junior Mixed and Infant School (0.27km) significantly enhances its desirability. The reasonably close access to Hitchin train station provides good commuter links. However, the lack of detailed information on local amenities beyond schools limits the score.

The listing explicitly states a plot size of 0.00 SQFT, indicating no private garden or significant outdoor space. This significantly detracts from the overall appeal, hence the low score.
