The list price of £450,000 seems somewhat high considering the required renovations. While similar properties in the area have sold for comparable prices, it is critical to note the absence of square footage for many nearby properties which makes direct comparisons difficult. The lack of updated pricing data and square footage details for comparable properties limits accurate price-per-square-foot calculation, and subsequently an accurate assessment of the property’s value. The property’s condition necessitates substantial investment, impacting its current market value.

The provided photos reveal a property in need of significant modernisation. While the structure appears sound, the interior finishes (carpets, wallpaper, kitchen and bathroom fittings) are dated and worn. A full renovation would be necessary to bring it to a contemporary standard. This necessitates a considerable financial investment, hence the score reflects the existing state.

The property is located in Gravesend, Kent, a town with good transport links to London via train, and also has several primary and secondary schools within a reasonable distance. The presence of nearby amenities isn’t explicitly detailed but Gravesend generally offers a range of services. The specific location within Gravesend on Dorset Crescent seems desirable based on comparable property prices, suggesting it’s a sought-after area. However, without precise details on immediate proximity to shops, parks, etc., the score isn’t a perfect 10.

The property features a sizeable rear garden that appears well-maintained, which is a significant advantage in a suburban location. The presence of mature trees and a greenhouse points towards a relatively large and usable outdoor space compared to other properties. However, the precise plot size is not provided and therefore the score cannot be perfect.
