The list price of £399,950 for an 850 sqft, 3-bedroom house with a garden in Portslade seems generally reasonable compared to some nearby properties. However, the absence of precise square footage data for nearby comparable properties (many list as 0.00 sqft) makes a definitive assessment of value challenging. The price is somewhat higher than some other properties on Hurst Crescent, but the recent kitchen upgrade and overall well-maintained condition justify a price within this range.

Based on the provided photos, the property appears to be well-maintained and in good condition. The kitchen and bathroom seem recently updated, and the overall presentation is neat and clean. However, there is a lack of information regarding any underlying structural issues which prevents a higher score.

The property is located in Portslade, a suburb of Brighton. Proximity to several good-rated primary schools (St. Nicholas Cofe Primary, St Peter’s Community Primary, St Mary’s Catholic Primary), and its relatively close distance to Portslade train station (providing links to Brighton and other parts of Sussex) contribute to a favorable location score. However, the lack of specific details on proximity to amenities like shops and other significant locations prevents a higher score. The average house price on nearby streets like The Crescent indicates higher property values in the vicinity but does not directly reflect the exact desirability of this particular location on Hurst Crescent.

The property has a garden, which is a positive attribute. The photos show a paved patio area and a lawn area, offering a reasonable amount of outdoor space. While the garden isn’t expansive, it provides a usable outdoor area for a property of this type and size, thus scoring reasonably well.
