The asking price of £500,000 for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse apartment with a private roof terrace and two parking spaces seems reasonable, considering comparable properties in the area. While precise square footage isn’t available for comparisons, similar properties in The Galleries have sold for comparable prices, and the premium for a penthouse with a roof terrace is justified given the current market conditions in Brentwood and its desirability. However, a lack of precise comparative sqft data prevents a more precise price per sqft analysis. The price range suggests a degree of negotiation potential.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be in excellent condition. The interior is modern, well-maintained, and stylishly decorated. The kitchen and bathrooms look new or recently renovated, and the overall finish suggests a high standard of upkeep.

The property is located in The Galleries, Brentwood, a development known for its convenient location near Brentwood mainline station (1.12km), providing excellent transport links to London and beyond. The area also boasts good schools like Holly Trees Primary School (0.58km) and Warley Primary School (0.87km), both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The proximity to shops and amenities within Brentwood further enhances its desirability.

While the property does not have a traditional garden, it offers a significant private roof terrace. This is a substantial outdoor space, especially for an apartment, providing a significant benefit and contributing to a higher land score compared to a property with no outdoor space whatsoever.
