Property Oracle says ..
The property is a detached house situated in Pembury, Kent. Pembury benefits from being relatively close to Tunbridge Wells, which offers a wider range of amenities and transport links. The proximity to Pembury School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) is a positive factor for families. Several other schools are within a reasonable distance, providing various educational options. The presence of Southeastern train stations at Frant, High Brooms, Paddock Wood, Wadhurst and Tunbridge Wells, albeit at varying distances, indicates access to rail travel. However, the exact travel times and frequency of services would need further investigation.
The images reveal a property that appears to be in good condition. It has been modernised while retaining some traditional character features, such as exposed beams. The kitchen and bathrooms look recently updated and well-maintained. There is no visible evidence of significant repair or renovation needs. The property also benefits from substantial grounds, including a large garden and outbuildings, suggesting ample outdoor space.
Considering the list price of £1,650,000 and the limited information on the property’s square footage, a precise price per square foot calculation isn’t possible. However, comparing it to nearby properties, such as those on Romford Road itself (one of which sold for £645,000) and other detached properties in Pembury (ranging from £580,000 to £1,200,000), the list price seems potentially high, but not unreasonable given the property’s apparent condition, the size of the land, and the desirable location. More information regarding the actual square footage of the property would be necessary to make a more definitive assessment of the price’s reasonableness. The average price per square foot in the area (£449.00) provides a useful benchmark, but without the property’s square footage, a direct comparison is impossible.
The property includes features such as a home gym, a cinema room, and a substantial outbuilding, adding value and increasing its appeal to potential buyers. The large garden and patio area are also significant assets.
In summary, this property presents a desirable combination of location, condition, and land size. While the list price may appear relatively high compared to some nearby properties, the additional features and large plot size could justify the asking price. A more precise analysis of the price would require the property’s square footage to allow for a price-per-square-foot comparison.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
