The asking price of £270,000 seems relatively reasonable considering the property’s size, location, and condition, when compared to other properties on Hawthorn Avenue. The lack of square footage data in nearby listings makes a precise per-square-foot comparison difficult; however, the price falls within the range of similar properties in the area.

The property appears to be generally well-maintained from the provided photographs, though some internal areas show signs that it could benefit from some modernisation. The kitchen and bathrooms look functional but could be updated to reflect more modern styles.

The property is located in Greenstead, Colchester, close to local schools (Hazelmere Junior School, Hazelmere Infant School, Colchester Academy, and Roach Vale Primary School, all within a short distance), which is a significant advantage for families. The proximity to the A12/A120 also improves its accessibility. However, Greenstead’s overall reputation as a desirable area may be a factor holding back the score.

The property has a garden, which is a positive, but the photos suggest it is relatively small and requires some upkeep. It isn’t a particularly large or impressive garden area, therefore a middling score reflects this.
