Property Oracle says ..
The property is located on Osborne Road in the Preston Park area of Brighton, East Sussex. Preston Park is a highly desirable residential area known for its green spaces, including Preston Park itself, offering recreational amenities. The proximity to several schools, including Balfour Primary School, Dorothy Stringer School, and Varndean School, makes it attractive to families. The area also benefits from relatively easy access to Brighton city centre and good transport links via nearby train stations. The location score reflects these positive attributes.
Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in generally fair condition. While there are some signs of wear and tear, particularly in the garden and some of the interior rooms, there is no major structural damage visible. The kitchen and bathrooms seem functional, although some updating might enhance their appeal. The overall condition is satisfactory but could benefit from some improvements.
The property includes a garden, though it currently appears somewhat overgrown and in need of maintenance. The size of the garden is relatively modest, considering the property’s size and location. The land score reflects the presence of a garden but also considers its current state.
The list price of £675,000 for a 915.19 sqft property with a 1408 sqft plot in this area seems relatively high compared to the average price per sqft of £554 in the area, and the average price of £486,436. However, the property benefits from a desirable location, the presence of a garden (albeit needing work), and a larger than average number of bedrooms (5). Nearby comparable properties on Osborne Road support this higher price point, although it’s important to note that the sqft data for those properties is unavailable, making a precise comparison difficult. The price score considers these factors.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
