The list price of £975,000 seems reasonable given the property’s size (2,553 sqft), number of bedrooms (5), and bathrooms (4), and its location in Sanderstead. However, a comparative market analysis using accurate square footage data from comparable recently sold properties in the immediate vicinity is crucial to determine whether it represents good value. The lack of precise sqft data for nearby properties makes a definitive judgment challenging.

The property appears to be well-maintained and in good condition based on the provided photographs. The interior is presented well, suggesting recent refurbishment or consistent upkeep. However, a physical viewing is necessary to fully assess the condition of all aspects of the property, including hidden issues.

Sanderstead is a desirable residential area in South Croydon, known for its good schools and transport links. The proximity to multiple train stations providing access to London and the presence of well-regarded primary and secondary schools contribute to its high desirability. However, the specific location on Merrin Hill needs further investigation to assess its exact position within Sanderstead and any potential drawbacks (e.g., noise, proximity to busy roads).

While the property includes a garden, the provided plot size is 0.00 sqft which is inaccurate and requires clarification. The visible garden in the photographs appears relatively small compared to what one might expect for a property of this size and price in the area. Further details on the actual garden size are needed for a more accurate assessment.
