Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 4 bedroom detached house located in Layer-De-La-Haye, Colchester, Essex. It has a list price of £695,000 and is 1,263.31 sqft with a plot size of 1,829.86 sqft.
The property appears to be in excellent condition, having undergone recent renovations or modernisation. The kitchen and bathrooms are modern and well-maintained. The garden is well-established and offers a good degree of privacy.
The location is a suburban area, seemingly quiet and residential. The proximity to Layer-De-La-Haye Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School (0.82 KM) is a positive for families. Several other schools are within a reasonable distance, although transport links to Colchester are approximately 6 KM away. The availability of local shops and amenities is not explicitly detailed.
Considering the average price per sqft in the area is £356, and this property is 1,263.31 sqft, a rough estimate of the expected price would be around £450,000. However, the actual list price is £695,000. The higher list price may be justified by the property’s excellent condition, the relatively large plot size, and the desirable location within a quiet residential area. However, further investigation into the local market and comparable properties would be necessary to definitively assess the price’s reasonableness.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
