A golden opportunity to acquire an attractive and authentic country residence in a quiet Mendip hamlet on the outskirts of a thriving Somerset market town.
Property Oracle says ..
The property is located in Bodden, a rural hamlet just over a mile from Cranmore, a popular market town in Somerset. The location is peaceful and offers a quiet lifestyle, but its distance from larger amenities might be a drawback for some buyers. Several good primary schools are within a reasonable distance, making it potentially attractive to families. The lack of readily available information on nearby transportation options makes it difficult to fully assess the location score.
Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be in good condition. The stonework is well-maintained, and the interior looks clean and well-presented. While some areas might benefit from minor cosmetic updates, there are no apparent signs of significant disrepair or the need for major renovations.
The property includes a garden, which is a desirable feature in the UK housing market. The garden appears to be of a reasonable size, though the exact dimensions are not specified. The presence of raised garden beds suggests potential for growing vegetables or flowers.
The list price of £535,000 is significantly higher than the average price of £401,869 for the area. However, the property is substantially larger than the average (1,561.40 sqft vs 1,072 sqft). The average price per square foot in the area is £374.00, while this property’s price per square foot is approximately £342.00. Considering the property’s condition, the presence of a garden, and its size, the list price might be considered slightly above average but not unreasonable, especially if the property’s location and other features are highly valued by potential buyers. The lack of detailed information on comparable properties makes a definitive price assessment 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. *
