Property Oracle says ..
This property is located in Harpenden, a desirable town in Hertfordshire. The area benefits from good schools, including Roundwood Primary School (rated Good by Ofsted) and Wood End School (rated Outstanding), both within a reasonable distance. Harpenden also has excellent transport links, with Harpenden train station providing easy access to London and other parts of the UK. The property itself is a three-bedroom semi-detached house with a garden. However, the property is in need of significant modernisation and updating. The kitchen and bathrooms are dated, and the interior decor is tired. The property requires a considerable amount of work to bring it up to modern standards. The list price of £750,000 seems high considering the condition of the property and its size (1,067 sq ft) compared to the average price per square foot in the area (£576). While the plot size is 1,477 sq ft, which is reasonable, the overall condition significantly impacts the perceived value. Nearby comparable properties show a range of prices, but many are in better condition or larger. Therefore, the price may need to be adjusted to reflect the required renovations.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
