The asking price of £1,400,000 seems relatively high considering the average price in the area. While the location is desirable and the property is a detached house with a good-sized garden, the need for some modernisation may deter some buyers at this price point. Nearby properties have sold for less, although some may be smaller or in need of more work.

The property appears to be in reasonable condition, but it could benefit from some modernisation. The kitchen and bathrooms, while functional, show signs of age. Some rooms feature dated decor and furnishings. Therefore, while structurally sound, some cosmetic improvements would enhance the property’s appeal.

The property is located on High Drive in New Malden, a desirable residential area in Kingston Upon Thames. It is within close proximity to good schools such as Coombe Hill Junior and Infant Schools (both rated ‘Outstanding’ or ‘Good’ by Ofsted), and within a reasonable distance of transportation links like Norbiton and New Malden train stations. This makes it a convenient location for families and commuters.

The property boasts a good-sized garden, offering ample outdoor space. This is a significant asset, particularly for families or those who enjoy outdoor activities. The garden appears well-maintained and provides a pleasant environment.
