Several nearby properties on Downside Close are listed between £140,000 and £365,000, suggesting some price variation within the immediate vicinity. The presence of nearby schools, such as Archbishop Wake Church of England Primary School (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) within 0.39km, is a positive factor for families. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in generally good condition, though some rooms show signs of needing some modernisation. The kitchen and bathrooms appear relatively modern and well-maintained. The garden is of modest size, but it includes a substantial garden shed with its own kitchen and sleeping area. Considering the property’s location near good schools, its relatively modern kitchen and bathrooms, and the added benefit of the substantial garden shed, the asking price of £400,000 appears to be at the higher end of the market value for the area. However, the additional space provided by the garden shed could justify this price for some buyers.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
