Cave Hill is located in the South area of Maidstone, Kent. The property is a cottage with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, spanning 955 sqft on a 1,169 sqft plot. The list price is £500,000.

The property appears to be in excellent condition, well-maintained and presented to a high standard. The interior is modern and clean with updated fixtures and fittings. The exterior is also well-maintained, with a neat garden and landscaping. The property benefits from a good-sized garden, offering both patio and lawn areas, along with additional outbuildings.

The location is a key selling point. Cave Hill is a desirable area of Maidstone, known for its peaceful setting and proximity to local amenities, including several well-regarded schools such as St Michael’s Church of England Infant School and St Michael’s Church of England Junior School, both within a reasonable distance. The area also benefits from good transport links, with Maidstone West train station approximately 1.26km away, providing convenient access to London and other major cities.

Considering the average house price in the area is £269,233 and the average price per sqft is £324, the asking price of £500,000 for this property seems high, especially considering the smaller sqft compared to other properties in the area. However, the exceptional condition, desirable location, and sizeable garden for a cottage could justify a premium. The property’s waterfront location and peaceful setting are additional factors that contribute to its value. A detailed comparative market analysis of similar properties in the immediate vicinity would be necessary to determine a more precise valuation.

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