Potters Bar is a popular commuter town located in Hertfordshire, with excellent transport links to London. The property is situated on Hatfield Road, which is conveniently located near to Potters Bar train station, providing easy access to the Great Northern Line. Several primary schools with good Ofsted ratings are within a short distance, making it an attractive location for families. The property itself benefits from a good-sized garden, offering ample space for outdoor activities. The garden includes a patio area, perfect for entertaining, and a sizable lawn. The presence of a swimming pool and other garden features further enhance its appeal.

The property appears to be in good condition. The interior is well-maintained and presented to a high standard, with modern fixtures and fittings in the kitchen and bathroom. There is evidence of recent renovation or modernisation, which has been tastefully done. There are no apparent signs of significant disrepair or the need for extensive renovation.

The plot size of 1,185 sqft is relatively modest for a property in this area, but still provides a good-sized garden.

Considering the property’s location, condition, and land size, the list price of £650,000 seems slightly below the average price for the area, which is £879,361. However, the average price per sqft in the area is £801.00, and this property is listed at approximately £676 per sqft. While the property is smaller than average (960 sqft vs 1,097 sqft average), its good condition and desirable location justify the price. The nearby comparable properties on Hatfield Road support this assessment, with similar properties selling for prices in the range of £577,000 to £645,000. The slightly lower price may reflect the slightly smaller size of the property compared to other similar properties in the area.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
