Property Oracle says ..

The property is located on Douglas Road, Maidstone, Kent, ME16 8EX. It’s a semi-detached house with 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. The listing price is £425,000.

The property benefits from a very convenient location, with two outstandingly rated primary schools (St Michael’s Church of England Infant School and St Michael’s Church of England Junior School) within a very short walking distance (0.04km). Maidstone West train station is also conveniently located at 0.55km, providing easy access to commuting routes. This positive aspect significantly enhances the property’s desirability and potential value.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in good condition. The interior is modern and well-maintained, with updated fixtures and fittings. There is a small garden at the rear of the property. While the garden is relatively small, it still offers some outdoor space.

Considering the average house price in the area is £266,160 and the average price per sqft is £336, the asking price of £425,000 for this property appears high, especially given the lack of information regarding the square footage. However, the property’s numerous bedrooms and bathrooms, combined with its excellent location and good condition, could justify a higher price compared to the average. More information on the square footage would be needed to provide a more definitive assessment of the price’s reasonableness. The nearby comparable properties are also lacking in sqft information, making a definitive price comparison difficult.

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