Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 4-bedroom detached bungalow situated in Wivenhoe, Colchester, Essex. The location benefits from being within proximity to several primary schools, including Broomgrove Infant and Junior Schools (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and Millfields Primary School (rated ‘Outstanding’). Wivenhoe train station is also conveniently located approximately 1km away, providing easy access to Colchester and other areas.
The property itself appears to be in good condition based on the provided photographs. The interior is presented in a modern style, with recently updated kitchen and flooring. There is evidence of a recently completed renovation or refurbishment. The exterior also appears well-maintained. The property includes a sizeable garden and a garage, adding to its overall appeal.
Considering the average house price in Wivenhoe is £348,914 and the average price per square foot is £356, the listing price of £400,000 for this 4-bedroom detached bungalow with a large garden and garage seems reasonable, particularly given its apparent recent refurbishment and desirable location near good schools and transport links. The nearby comparable properties support this assessment, with prices ranging from £180,000 to £600,000. However, the lack of square footage information for the subject property prevents a precise price per square foot comparison.
Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
