This four-bedroom property in Ashtead, Surrey, presents a mixed bag of opportunities and challenges for prospective buyers. The property’s location in Ashtead village is a strong selling point. Ashtead is known for its highly sought-after schools, the proximity to the mainline railway station provides easy access to London and the surrounding areas, and its attractive, village-like atmosphere contributes to a desirable lifestyle. This location alone makes this property quite attractive to buyers.

However, the interior condition presents a different picture. The photos reveal that the property is dated and needs significant modernisation. The decor, kitchen, and bathrooms appear outdated, requiring renovation to match modern standards. A complete refurbishment of the internal fittings would be required to bring the property to a modern standard. This would be a significant additional expense on top of the purchase price.

The garden, while present and larger than some comparable plots, could benefit from some landscaping to enhance its appeal. Though it offers a pleasant outdoor space, it presently appears somewhat overgrown. This will incur further costs to buyers if they want a more up-to-date garden.

The asking price of £760,000 reflects the desirable location, but the required investment in renovations should be factored in by any prospective buyers. Whilst comparable properties exist in the area, it is important to factor in additional costs for refurbishment in order to secure a truly favourable price.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
