The list price of £500,000 seems reasonable considering the property’s size and location in Joydens Wood. Comparable properties in the area have sold for similar prices. The need for modernisation, however, suggests the price reflects this requirement. Without specific square foot pricing for comparable properties, a precise value assessment is limited.

The property shows signs of needing modernisation and updating. While structurally sound, the interior décor, fixtures and fittings appear dated, indicating that some level of refurbishment would likely enhance its value and appeal. The kitchen and bathroom specifically could be considered outdated by modern standards.

Joydens Wood benefits from good local schools rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, including Joydens Wood Junior and Infant Schools, within a close proximity to the property. The area also offers proximity to green spaces like Joydens Wood nature reserve, suggesting a family-friendly environment. Transport links, while not immediately adjacent, are within a reasonable distance, adding to its desirability. However, the lack of immediate high street amenities might detract slightly from the overall score.

The property boasts a garden of a considerable size (2,376 sqft). This is larger than many properties in the area and provides an attractive outdoor space for recreation and potential expansion, hence the relatively high score. However, the photos reveal a garden that appears somewhat unkempt, slightly lowering the score.
