Property Oracle says ..
The Bushens is a character property located in Bishops Tawton, Barnstaple, North Devon. The property benefits from being close to Bishops Tawton Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) which is only 0.19km away. Barnstaple train station is also relatively close by at 2.89km.
The property itself appears well-maintained and in good condition, with many original features retained and tastefully updated. The images show a well-presented interior and exterior, suggesting that the property is move-in ready and doesn’t require significant renovation. The presence of a garden adds to its appeal.
The list price of £520,000 is slightly higher than the average price of £451,562 for the area. However, considering the property’s size (1,160 sqft), which is slightly larger than the average (1,107 sqft), and its character features, the price per sqft is comparable to the area average (£407). The inclusion of a garden also justifies a higher price point compared to other properties in the area which do not have gardens. The higher price is further supported by the higher prices of nearby properties, such as the listing at £600,000 in Bishops Tawton, although the sqft for these properties are not provided. Therefore, the asking price appears reasonable given the property’s features and location.
The property has a garden, and based on the images, this is a good-sized garden with various features. This is a significant positive aspect of the property.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
