Property Oracle says ..

Babbacombe, Torquay is a desirable location in the South West of England. The property is situated within easy reach of local amenities, including schools which have a good Ofsted rating and transport links. The proximity to the coast and the town of Torquay adds to its appeal.

The property itself appears to be in good condition for its age. Whilst there is evidence of some wear and tear, the images suggest that it is well-maintained and habitable. The interior is presented in a traditional style, with some period features preserved. There is no obvious need for extensive renovations.

The property benefits from a substantial garden, providing ample outdoor space. The garden is well-established and includes mature trees and shrubs.

Considering the property’s location, condition, and the size of the garden, the list price of £875,000 appears to be in line with, or potentially slightly above, the average price per square foot in the area. However, the lack of plot size information in square feet makes a precise assessment of the price difficult. The average price per sqft in the area is £330.00, and this property is 2,373.44 sqft. Therefore, a simple calculation shows that the price per sqft is approximately £369. This is higher than the average, but given the location and the size of the property, it may be justified. More information on comparable properties in the immediate vicinity would allow for a more precise assessment.

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