The property is a semi-detached bungalow located on High Road, Hockley, Essex, with a list price of £475,000. It has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and a total square footage of 816 sqft. The plot size is 916 sqft.

The location is good, with Hockley Primary School (Outstanding Ofsted rating) being only 1.07km away. Several other well-regarded primary schools are within a 3km radius. Hockley train station is also relatively close, providing access to Greater Anglia lines.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in excellent condition. It has recently undergone a significant modernisation and extension, with a new kitchen, bathrooms, and a substantial garden room/entertainment space added. The interior is presented to a high standard. The garden is well-maintained and includes a large decked area and a garden building.

The plot size is relatively small compared to other properties in the area, but the addition of the garden room effectively increases the usable space.

Considering the average price per sqft in the area is £288, and the list price for this property is £475,000, the price per sqft is approximately £582. This is significantly higher than the average for the area. However, the property’s superior condition, recent renovations, and the addition of the substantial garden room justify a higher price per sqft than the area average. The higher price may also reflect the desirability of the location and the limited availability of similarly modernised properties.

The property benefits from a modern kitchen, modern bathrooms, and a large garden with a substantial garden building, which could be used as an office or games room. The property appears to be well-maintained and in excellent condition.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
