The property is located in Caterham, Surrey, a town in the Tandridge district of South East England. The area benefits from several nearby primary and secondary schools with good Ofsted ratings, suggesting a family-friendly environment. Several railway stations are within a reasonable distance, providing convenient access to commuting routes. The proximity to local schools and transport links contributes positively to the desirability of the location.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of modernisation and some repair. The interior shows dated decor, worn carpets and wallpaper, and some areas require attention. The kitchen and bathroom appear particularly outdated. The exterior, while showing some signs of age, seems structurally sound. The garden is present, though it may require some landscaping. The overall condition suggests a need for renovation before the property reaches optimal condition.

The property has a small garden, as evidenced by the provided images. While not extensive, the presence of a garden adds to the property’s appeal, especially for families.

The list price of £375,000 is slightly below the average price of £383,229 for the area. However, considering the property’s condition and relatively small size (280 sq ft) compared to the area average (1,590 sq ft), the price may be reasonable. The average price per square foot in the area is £241, while this property’s price per square foot is significantly higher. The need for substantial renovation should be factored into any assessment of value. Nearby comparable properties show a range of prices, with some significantly higher, suggesting that the list price may reflect the current market conditions in the area, while acknowledging the need for significant investment.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
