The list price of £400,000 seems somewhat reasonable considering comparable properties in the area, particularly the nearby listing of a four-bedroom house at the same price point. However, the lack of precise square footage data for comparisons, and the need for potential renovations, prevent this from being a top score. More detailed information on the property’s specific features and condition would aid in a more precise evaluation.

The property appears to be reasonably well-maintained, although some areas could benefit from modernisation or updating. The kitchen and some of the rooms show signs of wear and tear, suggesting a need for some improvements to enhance its overall presentation and value.

Wivenhoe is a desirable location in Essex, offering a good balance of village life and proximity to Colchester. The presence of nearby schools, a train station, and access to local amenities contribute to its appeal. However, the specific location on Elmstead Road needs further assessment to determine its exact advantages and drawbacks within the village.

The property includes a garden, which is a positive feature, but its size and features are not explicitly stated and appear limited based on the photos. This leads to a moderate score, as a larger or more beautifully landscaped garden would command a higher score.
