The property is a substantial detached house located in Newbottle, Houghton le Spring. The area benefits from relatively close proximity to several schools, including Newbottle Primary Academy (rated \‘Good\’ by Ofsted) which is only 0.40km away. While the provided data does not offer details on public transport links, the location appears reasonably convenient for families, given the proximity to primary schools. From the images, the property appears to be in excellent condition. The interior is modern, well-maintained, and finished to a high standard. The kitchen is particularly noteworthy, featuring high-quality appliances and fixtures. There is also evidence of recent renovations or extensions, suggesting a property that has been well-cared for. The property’s plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft, which is unusual for a detached house of this size. Further information on the outdoor space is needed for a complete assessment of the land. However, the images show a paved patio area, suggesting a relatively small, but well-maintained, outdoor space. Considering the property’s size (3,166.53 sqft), condition, and apparent location, the list price of £450,000 appears high compared to the average price (£204,864) and price per sqft (£195) in the area. However, the lack of plot size information and the absence of comparable properties of similar size and quality in the immediate vicinity makes a definitive statement on value difficult. Nearby properties on Grange View itself sold for £385,000 and £477,500, suggesting that the list price might be within the range of comparable properties, although more information is needed to confirm this. The higher price may reflect the superior condition and modern finishes of this particular property.

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