The list price of £575,000 seems reasonably priced considering its location and the size of the property. Nearby comparable properties on Grand Drive have sold for similar prices, although other factors need to be considered including the need for modernisation in the property. The unique features, such as the observatory, could add value to some buyers, but may deter others. The absence of explicit square footage data in other listings prevents a more precise per-square-foot comparison.

While the property boasts charming original features such as stained-glass windows and period architecture, the interior appears to be in need of some modernisation. The kitchen and bathroom look dated and could benefit from an update. The overall condition is not poor, but several areas show signs of age and could be improved to enhance the property’s overall appeal.

The property is situated on Grand Drive in Herne Bay, a highly desirable coastal location in Kent. Its proximity to the seafront, coupled with the presence of nearby schools (Hampton Primary School, Herne Bay High School) and the Herne Bay train station, makes it a very attractive location for families and those seeking a seaside lifestyle. The area also benefits from relatively easy access to Canterbury and London via rail and road.

The property includes a sizable garden with mature trees, shrubs, and a patio area. The garden appears well-maintained. While the exact plot size is unavailable, the images suggest a garden significantly larger than average for properties in the area, contributing to a higher land score.
