Property Oracle says ..
This property is located in Harvel, Kent, a village situated in a rural location. The surrounding area benefits from good schooling options such as Meopham School (Outstanding Ofsted rating) within a reasonable distance. Several Southeastern train stations are also within a few kilometers, offering convenient access to other towns and cities. The property itself has a large garden, providing ample outdoor space.
The property appears to be in need of some modernisation and updating. The interior photos reveal dated fixtures and fittings, suggesting potential for renovation. The kitchen and bathrooms, in particular, appear to be in need of an upgrade.
Considering the property’s location in a desirable area with good schools and transport links, the large garden, and the need for modernisation, the list price of £700,000 seems slightly high compared to the average price per square foot in the area. While the average price in the area is £530,273 and the average price per sqft is £482, this property is significantly smaller than average at 640 sqft. Nearby comparable properties are listed at similar prices, but their square footage is not provided, making a direct comparison difficult. However, given the need for renovation, the price may be justified to some buyers willing to undertake the necessary work.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
