The list price of £900,000 is high, but may not be unreasonable, given the property’s size, the inclusion of significant land, and its potential for additional income generation through the development of outbuildings. However, the lack of precise square footage makes a definitive price-per-square-foot assessment impossible. The condition of the outbuildings needs addressing which has to be taken into account. Considering nearby property sales, particularly those with a similar size or development potential, the pricing seems competitive but not exceptional value. This means a middle score.

Based on the photographs, the property appears to be in generally good condition, showing signs of recent renovation or modernisation in some areas, such as the kitchen and bathrooms. However, there are also outbuildings and structures that are in disrepair, requiring significant investment. The internal spaces seen in photos show a blend of modern and older features that are fairly well-maintained, but the exterior images suggest a need for some work on the outbuildings. This blend of well-maintained and needing repair yields a middling score.

The property is located in a rural setting within the Blackmoor Vale, offering a tranquil environment. While this might not suit everyone, the proximity to the villages of Charlton Horethorne and the towns of Sherborne and Templecombe provides access to amenities and transport links. The presence of several well-regarded primary schools within a reasonable distance is a positive factor for families. The overall location score reflects a balance between rural seclusion and access to essential services.

The property boasts a substantial amount of land, which is a significant advantage. The aerial view shows extensive grounds surrounding the main house and outbuildings, presenting opportunities for gardening, recreational use, or potential development, depending on planning permissions. This generous plot size justifies a high score.
