Property Oracle says ..
The property is a 3-bedroom detached house located on Boscombe Road in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. It’s situated in the Kursaal locality and is within reasonable distance of several schools, including Porters Grange Primary School and Bournemouth Park Academy, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. The area also benefits from proximity to several train stations, such as Southend Victoria and Southend Central, providing good transport links.
Based on the images, the property appears to be a traditional style house. While it has some character, it also shows signs of needing some modernisation or updating. The kitchen and bathroom, in particular, appear dated and could benefit from refurbishment. The garden is a noticeable feature, offering a good-sized outdoor space.
Considering the average house price in the area is £275,805 and the average price per square foot is £173, the listed price of £400,000 for this 850.80 sqft property seems high. While nearby properties on Boscombe Road have sold for higher prices, the lack of comparable properties with similar square footage makes a direct comparison difficult. However, the condition of the property and the need for potential renovations should be factored into the valuation. The smaller plot size compared to other properties in the area may also affect the overall value.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
