The list price of £475,000 requires consideration. The property’s condition requires significant investment in modernisation and refurbishment, meaning that a buyer must factor this into their offer. While it’s a 4-bedroom house in a desirable location with a substantial garden, the lack of precise square footage details and average price-per-square-foot data for the immediate area makes a definitive judgment on value challenging. Therefore, given the need for modernisation, a mid-range score is appropriate.

Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in a reasonably good condition structurally. However, the interior images reveal that the property needs updating and modernisation. The rooms show evidence of dated decor and fittings, needing a complete refurbishment to meet modern standards. This limits the condition score.

The property is located on School Road in Sible Hedingham, a village in Essex. Its proximity to several well-regarded schools (St Peter’s Church of England Primary, Teaseldown School, and Hedingham School and Sixth Form, all within a reasonable distance) is a significant positive. While transportation information wasn’t provided, the village setting suggests a quieter lifestyle which can be attractive to many buyers. However, the lack of explicit details regarding immediate amenities and transport links slightly lowers the score.

The property boasts a sizable garden, offering considerable outdoor space. The images show a mature garden with various features such as a patio and established plants. The listing mentions ‘private grounds of approximately 0.27 of an acre,’ which is notably larger than many properties, especially in this area. This suggests a high score for land.
