The list price of £395,000 seems relatively reasonable, considering the property’s size (1,278.11 sqft) and location in Prettygate, Colchester. However, precise pricing data per square foot is unavailable for nearby properties to make a truly objective comparison against the average. The property likely requires some cosmetic upgrades and general maintenance, impacting the final valuation. The absence of key metrics for nearby houses makes it difficult to compare.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be generally well-maintained and in reasonable condition. While not in pristine condition, it doesn’t show any major signs of disrepair or significant renovation needs. The kitchen and bathrooms seem relatively modern and updated, although the overall decor and style are slightly dated. The internal condition score could be higher if there were more images, which could provide more conclusive evidence about the quality of materials, finish, and wear and tear throughout the house.

The property is located in Prettygate, Colchester, which benefits from proximity to several highly-rated primary schools (Home Farm Primary School and St Teresa’s Catholic Primary School, both rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted) within a short distance. Colchester town centre is also relatively accessible, although the provided distance to the train station is approximately 4.54km - while this may be walkable for some, it’s not ideal for everyone and will likely rely on car use. The presence of nearby amenities isn’t explicitly detailed, so this score reflects a balance of positive and less positive location factors.

The property includes a garden, as shown in the photographs. However, the plot size is listed as 0.00 SQFT, which indicates a lack of detail provided which is unusual. The garden appears to be of average size for a property of this type in the area, and reasonably well-maintained. It’s not exceptionally large but offers adequate outdoor space.
