Property Oracle says ..

The property is located in Purleigh, Essex, a village in the Maldon district. The location is peaceful and rural, with the property situated near All Saints’ Church. While this offers a tranquil setting, it’s important to consider the distance to amenities such as larger shops and employment centers. The proximity to Purleigh Community Primary School is a positive for families, and other schools with good Ofsted ratings are within a reasonable driving distance. Train stations are several kilometers away, requiring car travel for commuting. Overall, the location scores well for those seeking a quiet, village lifestyle but may be less convenient for those needing easy access to urban amenities and public transport.

Based on the images, the property appears to be in excellent condition. It’s a substantial brick house that has been well-maintained and recently updated. The interior is modern and stylish, with high-quality finishes and fixtures. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs or renovations needed.

The property includes extensive grounds, as shown in the aerial and garden photos. There’s ample space for outdoor activities, and the landscaping is mature and well-maintained. The size of the plot is substantial, exceeding the average for the area.

The list price of £1,750,000 is significantly higher than the average house price in the area (£228,986). However, this property is considerably larger (8,339 sqft vs the average 924 sqft) and of a different type than the average property. The average price per square foot in the area is £247.00, while this property’s price per square foot would be approximately £210.00 (based on the provided sqft). Considering the property’s condition, size, land, and location, the price appears to be justified, although it represents a premium compared to average properties in the surrounding area. This premium reflects the size, condition, and unique character of this large family home. The property is a substantial and unique property and is likely to attract buyers seeking a high-end home in a rural setting.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
