The property is located in Longdown, Exeter, Devon, a rural area in the Kenn Valley. The area benefits from several primary schools within a reasonable distance, including Doddiscombsleigh Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) approximately 5km away. Several railway stations are also within commuting distance, offering links to Exeter and beyond. However, the immediate proximity to shops and other amenities is not specified, which may be a factor for potential buyers.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of modernisation and updating. The décor is dated, and several areas show signs of wear and tear. The kitchen and bathroom in particular require significant renovation. The garden, while present, is overgrown and requires considerable attention.

The property’s list price is £250,000. The average price for properties in the area is significantly higher at £357,857, and the average price per square foot is £356. This property is 716.41 sqft, suggesting a price per sqft of approximately £349. While the list price is lower than the average for the area, the required renovations could significantly impact the overall cost for a buyer. The lack of plot size information makes a definitive assessment of value difficult. The presence of a garage is a positive factor.

Considering the property’s condition, the need for extensive renovation, and the relatively small size compared to other properties in the area, the list price may represent reasonable value for money, provided a buyer is prepared to undertake significant refurbishment works. The property’s location in a rural setting, near schools and transport links, is a positive aspect. However, the lack of immediate access to amenities is a potential drawback.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
