The list price of £145,000 seems relatively reasonable considering the property type, location, and size, particularly for a retirement flat in a desirable village location. Comparative pricing data is limited in the provided dataset (lack of square footage for nearby properties hinders a detailed per-square-foot comparison). However, the price appears to fall within a competitive range compared to similar properties within Balcombe and its surrounding areas.

The property appears generally well-maintained from the photos, but some aspects suggest it could benefit from modernisation. The kitchen and carpets, in particular, look dated. While there are no major issues apparent, an overall upgrade would enhance its appeal and value.

Balcombe is a desirable village in West Sussex, known for its picturesque setting and proximity to good schools and transport links. The property’s location within Bretts Orchard provides a peaceful environment while still being conveniently close to the village center and Balcombe train station. The proximity to a ‘Good’-rated primary school is a significant advantage. However, the lack of detailed information on local amenities beyond the immediate vicinity slightly reduces the score.

The property includes a small, private garden area which is a positive feature, particularly for a retirement property. However, the plot size is limited and would not suit those seeking a larger garden space. This restricts the overall land score.
