The property is located in Malvern, Worcestershire, a desirable area in the West Midlands. The proximity to Great Malvern train station (1.85km) offers convenient access to transport links. Several well-regarded schools, such as Malvern Wyche Cofe Primary School and The Chase, are within a reasonable distance, making it attractive to families. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in reasonable condition, though some modernisation would likely enhance its appeal. The kitchen and bathrooms show their age and could benefit from updating. The décor throughout is dated, and some areas could benefit from repainting and redecoration. However, the property is structurally sound and habitable. The garden is a notable feature, offering a good-sized outdoor space. The plot size is not specified, but the garden appears relatively small compared to other properties in the area. While it provides outdoor space, it may not be considered extensive. Considering the list price of £265,000, the average price in the area (£375,231), and the average price per square foot (£348), the property seems reasonably priced, particularly given its condition. The lower price point compared to area averages may reflect the need for modernisation. However, the property’s location and the inclusion of a garden are positive factors that could justify the asking price. Comparable properties in the area, such as those on Fruitlands itself, support this assessment.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
