The list price of £485,000 needs to be considered relative to comparable properties in the area. While the property seems well-maintained and in a good location, the absence of plot size data prevents an accurate calculation of price per square foot. The average prices of nearby streets show a variation, making a precise comparison difficult. The price seems reasonable but not exceptionally good value based on available information, hence it is not given the maximum score.

Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in excellent condition. The images showcase a modern, well-maintained interior and exterior. The kitchen, bathrooms, and other rooms look recently renovated or updated to a high standard. The overall impression suggests a property that is well-cared for and requires minimal repairs or renovations.

The property is located in Malvern, Worcestershire, a desirable area known for its attractive scenery and good amenities. Proximity to Malvern Link train station, along with several schools and shops within a reasonable distance, contributes to a positive location score. However, the specific location on Merick Road needs further investigation to assess its immediate surroundings more precisely, hence a score below the maximum.

While the property has a garden, the size is not specified. The photos indicate a relatively small, enclosed garden space. Therefore, the score reflects the presence of a garden but not an exceptionally large or expansive one.
