Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom semi-detached house located on Starts Hill Road, Orpington, in the BR6 8EW postcode, presents a compelling proposition in the UK housing market. Situated within the desirable Farnborough And Crofton locality, its prime location is a key strength. The proximity to Darrick Wood Junior, Infant & Nursery, and Senior School is a major selling point for families, enhancing the property’s appeal and likely contributing to its value. The relatively close distance to Orpington train station ensures excellent transport links. The property boasts a well-maintained exterior and appears reasonably modern, although the images suggest that a degree of upgrading, particularly within the bathroom, could enhance the property’s appeal. The garden is a pleasant addition, providing ample space for outdoor living and relaxation. However, without knowing the precise plot size of comparable nearby properties, making a conclusive assessment on the value for money is hard. The lack of precise details in the local comparison data makes it difficult to provide a more detailed assessment of the list price but based on the comparable prices provided the price seems inline with other properties in the area.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
