The asking price of £275,000 is relatively reasonable considering the property’s location in Bearsted, Kent, and the size (644 sqft). While comparable properties in the area are listed higher, this property requires substantial renovation which is reflected in the lower price. Additional information about the plot size and any structural issues would further enhance this evaluation.

The property shows signs of needing significant modernisation. The bathroom, kitchen, and bedrooms appear dated and require updating. The exterior also needs attention, particularly the garden, which appears overgrown and neglected. While the structure looks sound, the overall condition is far from excellent.

Bearsted is a desirable village in Kent, offering a good balance between rural living and proximity to Maidstone. The presence of well-regarded primary schools like Madginford Primary School within close distance adds to its family-friendly appeal. The relatively short distance to Maidstone East train station provides good commuting links to London and other major cities. However, the specific location on Merton Road may not be the most desirable part of Bearsted; more information on the house’s position on the road would aid more accurate scoring.

The property includes a garden and a garage in a nearby block. However, the photos suggest the garden requires significant work and is currently overgrown. Therefore, a medium score is given considering both assets and their respective condition.
