The property is located in Byfleet, Surrey, a town with good transport links to London via the South Western Railway. The nearby Byfleet & New Haw station is approximately 1.61km away, offering convenient access to commuting options. Several primary and secondary schools are within a reasonable distance, including St Mary’s Cofe Controlled Primary School (0.21km) and West Byfleet Junior School (2.82km), both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. This suggests a family-friendly location.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of significant renovation. The exterior shows signs of wear and tear, such as peeling paint and damaged brickwork. The interior images reveal outdated fixtures and fittings, and several areas require attention. The kitchen, in particular, shows significant damage and requires a complete refurbishment. The overall impression is one of a property that needs substantial investment to bring it up to a modern standard.

The property includes a garden, which is a positive aspect. While the garden appears somewhat overgrown and in need of landscaping, the presence of a garden adds value to the property, especially in a family-oriented area such as Byfleet.

The list price of £360,000 is significantly lower than the average house price in the area (£507,463). However, considering the property’s condition and the need for extensive renovation, the price may reflect the required investment. The average price per square foot in the area is £449, but this property’s condition and the lack of information regarding its actual square footage make a direct comparison difficult. Further investigation into comparable properties requiring renovation in the same area would be necessary to fully assess the price’s reasonableness. The presence of nearby properties with similar prices but potentially better conditions might indicate that the property is priced competitively for its condition, though it is still below average.

Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
