The listed price of £295,000 appears relatively reasonable for a two-bedroom flat in Sutton, considering comparable properties in the area. However, the lack of plot size information, coupled with the need for modernisation, prevents an entirely conclusive value-for-money assessment. The price seems competitive, considering the location and the potential for future appreciation after refurbishment. This factors into the moderate score.

The property shows signs of needing modernisation. While structurally sound, the kitchen and bathroom appear dated and in need of updating. The flooring and decor also seem somewhat tired. The condition is therefore not excellent, but neither is it in disrepair.

The property benefits from its proximity to Sutton mainline train station (0.53km), providing good transport links to London and other areas. The presence of well-regarded schools within a reasonable distance, such as Devonshire Primary School (0.19km) and Eagle House School (0.24km), adds to the location’s appeal for families. However, the immediate surrounding streets lack detailed price data, limiting a precise assessment of the area’s overall desirability and impacting the score.

The property includes access to communal gardens, a positive feature. However, it does not offer a private garden, which is a common feature sought after by many buyers. The score is moderate, reflecting the benefit of communal space but the lack of private outdoor space.
