West Didsbury is a popular area of Manchester, known for its excellent schools, transport links and local amenities. The property is located on Langford Road, within easy reach of several highly-rated primary schools including Cavendish Primary School and West Didsbury CE Primary School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The proximity to several train stations such as Burnage, East Didsbury and Mauldeth Road provides convenient access to Manchester city centre and beyond. The property itself is a five-bedroom semi-detached house. From the images provided, the property appears to be well-maintained and in good condition. It retains many original features, suggesting it may be a period property, but has also clearly undergone some modernisation, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The interior is presented well, with a tasteful décor. The property also benefits from a garden, offering additional outdoor space. Considering the property’s location in West Didsbury, its good condition, and the inclusion of a garden, the list price of £850,000 appears high compared to the average house price in the area (£323,519). However, the average price per square foot in the area (£325) is significantly lower than what one might expect for a property of this size and quality in West Didsbury. The lack of plot size information prevents a more accurate assessment of the land value. While nearby properties on Langford Road have sold for significantly less, the higher end of the market in this area demonstrates that prices for larger, well-maintained properties can exceed the average considerably. Therefore, while the price is above average, further analysis of comparable properties, taking into account the size and condition, would be needed to determine if it represents good value.

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